Any suggestions from all you knowledgable chaps out there.
Defender 300TDI 1995 REG
Rear diff is now in 40 odd pieces, problem is ....what to do.
Get a new diff assembly :eek: mega bucks. Cut off the holed diff pan source new parts ie crown wheel pinion drive and whatever else and weld on heavy duty replacement pan.
Get a Salisbury from somewhere...Tesco or Asda dont do em.

All suggestions greatly received ( Best place for parts:rolleyes: )

Ian,
I would weld on a new Steve Parker diff pan, and send a PM to Bmhor and ask about a good S/H diff unit.

Cheers, Sandy M.
 
Yes , either get a complete second hand axle or go the 2nd hand diff and weld on pan route . Going to be a fair bit of shrapnel inside the casing so you'll need to really give it a very good clean out . Also have to think about how good your welding is - can you get it oil tight :o ?.
I see that Craddocks and Paddocks and MM 4x4 are advertising salvage parts , as well as a lot of others in the lro mags . I supose postage is going to be at least 70 quid for a complete axle .
Never new bhmor did bits , but if he's local he's your man :)
