Next Years Power Tour Car Part 2

[kwhizz]

Well......I guess I was Lucky that the car didn't have a posi unit in it when I bought it (if it did I probably wouldn't have taken it apart)

.......After getting a posi unit and dropping the rear end off at Chassis Service for installation........... .........I go over there today and I was shown what was going on in the assy...........In disassembly the shaft that has to be removed to get the axles out was marred and scored so bad it to be cut off with a cut off wheel to get it out......also the rear was filled with motor oil rather than heavy weight oil.......and both axles are shot in the bearing area..........so......New Ring and pinion, bearings , and axles are on their way........Darn$$$$$$$

But.....after getting home I got the rear coil-overs installed waiting to get the rear axle assy back next week........

That rear diff must have come from NewYawk! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Better call the guy you sold the motor to and tell him to make sure the gear oil didn't wind up on the wrong end.

Surprised there weren't banana peels in there... or was that sawdust the oldtimers used to fix a noisy rear diff? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]
