What's the plan here mate? Just bearings and seals? Lockers?
Front LOKKA, rear adding a shim.
Will inspect the bearings but there was no noises or issues so just axle seals and pinion seals while doing the work.

Ready to drop back in!
Nifty idea using the pump/motor bench.
Annnnnnnd done. LSD is tight as. Unsure how long that'll last. Locker is doing what it should be. So happy chap.
Its actually a diff stand we reco truck diffs in. Only just held the baby pootrol diff haha.
Yeah we use similar style tooling for our hydraulic pumps and motors for recond

Nice one. Yeah noticed that bloody massive pinion on the bench in the background
Yeh pretty big. Lot of failures still.
Couldn't resist the urge to go for a play with the diffs yesterday so headed out about 1.30. Went to labertouche. The auto locker performed brilliantly. Enabled me to just idle up big rocky steps that previously were a challenge. With the back wheel well and truly in the air, it just crawled along. For a touch over $400, an auto locker and shimming of LSD is the best bang for buck vehicle ability improvement I have done yet.
Heading up western I still couldn't drive due to massive ruts needing at least 35s and MTZs turning into mud wheels.
Car performed faultlessly and sat between 75°c and 80°c all day long. The intercooler barrel was stone cold to touch when I stopped to air up, after 5 hrs of sitting over the hot engine, proof the the water is flowing properly.
Lost a mudflap though
