Thread: I blew up my rear diff

No problem with that, just don't go too fast or tow anything.

Sweet as only got to go about 8k and about 60km/h so yeah thanks heaps for the info :-)

might be sensible to also take out the rear propshaft just incase something in the rear diff jams it reduces the chance of other damage

Good point will do cheers

And rear axles should be pulled, Years ago, 10 now, after blowing a diff in a mates rangie, we were cruising home, then crunch and the wheels lock up as we had centre diff locked, when it imploded properly, it just halted, lucky we weren't moving to fast

Learnt to drop shaft and axles forever more

As rovercare said could get interesting otherwise

if its any use to you i'm selling a complete 24 spline rear diff.
