ring and pinion for 80 series front diff

[hello24]

looks like i have cooked my front diff after the truck broke down. (hole in radiator ) We towed the truck for about an hour home but one of the kids must have bumped the centre difflock switch , so with the ignition on i didnt notice the truck was in 4wd. when we got home after the tow i noticed a burning smell from the truck. i noticed diff oil all under the vehichle the diff was hot as hell (i mean so hot that water would hiss when i splashed a puddle on it) yes it was raining aswell to make the situation even more enjoyable after putting a hole in my radiator and now a cooked diff

will be taking the diff apart next week but am told that i will prob be in for a r&p and new bearings. the beerings are cheap but the r&p are a different story
will see what they look like but does anyone have any good gears that they have taken out to change ratio or spares laying around to make my little job a bit cheaper
thanks

My flatmate has a front set of 4.1 nitrogears that he took out to fit 4.88s instead. They've only done 3000km ish so in brilliant condition. He wants $200 for them if you're interested
