--- Quote from: "thebiggreenthing" --- but eveytime it is the pinion bearings that fail on  me !
ive got a 2 inch lift with std prop.....i wunder if it is the prop putting strain on the diffs  :? its nearly at the end of its slip !

That's exactly what I was going to suggest...  repeated failure of pinion bearings is either a sign that you are very unlucky with the diffs you are putting in, or an external force being applied on them.

yes well i could have been 3rd time lucky...but ooooo no  :shock:  bang goes another 1 lol, i never had this problem before it was lifted, so its got to be the shaft, cant be anything else, there is a template for a prop spacer on the forum somewhere, what do you recomend...spacer to go inbertween prop and flange or get a longer prop ?

i wounder how long it takes me to break this one ?  :?   my bet.....tomorrow night  :P

Just fit a salisbury axle as they are much stronger. Go for a disc breaked one and the only mod needed will be the prop as it needs to be 2" shorter.
Cost around £180 for a wide angle fron gone2far.

no dont want anything dangling any further underneath, the rover diffs are bad enough , good job those diff guards work  :shock:
