Rear diff went

[Jake vl]

Evening all, I have just blown my rear diff up on my zd30t
Apon pulling apart I have discovered a few issues with gears missing teeth. Was woundering if there are any diagrams out there to give me a hand. Also I have arb lockers in it to make things a bit harder again. Cheers

do you have the gear and know how to pattern a diff?
if not contact a shop.

You might be better off getting a complete diff from a wreckers and change over the air locker, diffs arnt really hard to do just time consuming and tedious. Google the crap out of it and see what comes up but I'm pretty sure the diff itself would be pretty similar to a dana 30 or 44 so you would need to make a diff spreader and have a dial indicator, a normal torque wrench and one that measures bearing preload so that in itself is pretty costly if you don't already have them tools

Thanks tweak'e I do have most the tool I use them on heaven marine deisel g/box's. I have thrown in the towel because I can't be assed with it. Appreciate the info. Although I did find somthing interesting. The last person to go near my diff had failed to lock tight or torque properly and the nut in the pinion shaft to the tailshaft flange was no longer on.
Thanks again fellas appreciate
