WTB 4.875 ratio Terrano/Navara Front diff

[sibainmud]

As I have just fitted my last spare front diff, I'm in need of another (just in case)
Would prefer in or near Auckland as freight would be killer.
Side note;
39 tooth ring gear with 8 tooth pinion.

Thanks.
Cheers,

Bumpty bump!
I have now destroyed my last front diff.
I will spread the drag net further. i will travel or get ORE courier to deliver.
Any D21 Terrano or Navara, CA48 or HG48 diff will do.

What part of the diff have you destroyed? I've got front diff parts, but only a crownwheel in 4.8 ration (no pinion)

[nismo26]

Crown wheel and pinion need to be a set.

Damn you must be giving those things a hard time.
Good to know the gearbox is standing up to the punishment

I'll take that crown wheel. They ideally need to be a matched set but i know I have three pinions still installed in their housings. (Same pinion for most ratios)
I seem to blow teeth off the crown, right foot has a lot to do with it
As I know when they go bang, first thing is to disconnect the hubs and take it out of 4wd so minimal damage occurs to the pinon gear
I'm sure i can build a good one from the bits. i will need to pull out the bearing blue and spend a bit of time shimming

I can arrange some $$ for shipping.

I'll find it amongst my parts stacks, and dig it out this weekend. Send me a pm?

[sibainmud]

PM sent.

Thanks for that Steve.

Gotta be cheaper than the rip off merchant in Kelston....quoted $450.....f#$&'n burglar
Here's the question I posted on the auction;
Hi There, Would you have a front diff (4.875:1 ratio) (HG48 or CA48). If so how much? Cheers, Simon. 11:28 pm, Tue 31 Jan

$450 7:11 pm, Wed 1 Feb

You must be joking!!!! Last one I got a few years ago from the most expensive 4X4 wrecker, only cost me $300. I have bought matched pairs of diffs for $100 for both front and rear. I have a perfect 4.6 ratio here (more common and popular) do you want to swap. I have done business with you before and even recommended you to others in my 4X4 club. Won't be doing that again! 9:58 pm, Wed 1 Feb

Hey man, just a thought usually stripping teeth off crown wheels is due to the housing flexing under load and reducing tooth contact area. It will be detrimental if you had a fulltime 4x4 and doing mileage but given that you might only cover a few thousand kms off road a year it shouldn't be a problem. When you rebuild the diff, put much more preload on the side bearings to help stop the crown gear moving away from the pinion gear under load if you know what I mean. (Rock crawler guys usually do it)

That's my exact thoughts too. More mesh (don't care about a bit of noise), more preload on the main bearings. As I have been swapping out whole assemblies, they come from the factory set up like that. The last one was from a later model (95) wide body too.
Thanks for the suggestion Glen.
