Differential Question
Posted: Sat Apr 09, 2011 10:49 pm
Just had the diff rebuilt.
A question:
One of the sun and/or planet gears was replaced during the rebuild and they seem to move ever so slightly up and down (arrowed in the pic). Very easily, and only about half a mil.
What does the team think?
Is this normal?
I've no reason to think it isn't.
I'm just curious.
The fella that rebuilt it said I was lucky the gear bit that broke off just shot out the back of the cage and dropped into the bottom of the diff carrier and didn't grind into the CWP.
