diffs and lockers

<< < (3/5) > >>

Wanderer:
The later 200's had 24 spline diffs fitted.

Xtremeteam:
its dead easy to tell from the outside IIIRC as the 10 spline shafts have a rangie style domed end on the shafts & the 24 spline shafts had a flat end cap (this is on the rear BTW)

Wanderer:
Quite right Mikee the 10 spline is more bulbous (spooling) and the 24 spline is flatter.

Mine is a 1993 so I reckon they changed around 92ish.
Someone on MC took some photos at one time showing the difference.
You can see the difference easy enough without removing the wheels if you've got steel wheels.

chuggaman:
ok

the rear is on.it appears mine is a 24 spline and the shafts are the same length.and its driving.the only problem is :evil:


there are four bolts either side that bolt onto the axle.the 90 diffs are a little thicker at these four bolt points.so now effectivley my diff is held on by four less bolts(though after a 5 mile drive no leaks yet)

can these studs be extracted to allow me to put bolts in instead

the same problem will arise on the front

thankyou very much guys


mike

Xtremeteam:
take the diff out

bash problem studs with a hammer to push them out,align new studs in hole,draw up using large nutas a spacer & a 9/16 with washer,refit gasket,put diff back in
