  • Money pit aye!!!

    Looks like front diff seal? Confirmation anyone? I note Milner do one for £11. easy job?

        Well, dont look like it was the breather. Took it out last night, small (2") oil mark this morning.

        Is there a write up on here anywhere regarding changing the diff seals?

          I'll see if there's a 'how too' in my manual and scan it if you want.



          p.s. good luck loosening those nuts, I had to use a length of scaffold tube on a ring spanner!

            If you dont mind Vince...

            I found an exploded view, which shows a snap ring, which looks like it may need the diff cover off to remove.

              The drivers side can be done with diff in place Andy, but is still a pain to do especially if you think the bearing may have gone

              have a look here for description on stripping diff

                Hoping its just the seal. No other syptoms.

                Can anyone confirm this is the blighter?
