not to sure as yet but took the backplate off the diff to find only 1 wheel turns at anytime if you spin them while in gear.

Also couple of teeth have gone from each side so could poss be halfshafts

Could this be the problem???




pics arnt great.

Also got some stickers on the car should give me close to 500bhp works on corsa b drivers lol.

looks like it needs re welding

Hope so matey cheers

when u removed the backing plate did anything fall out?

No nothing fell out might still be in there.

eash wheel turns independent of eash other but the crown wheel dosnt turn with any.

So it looks like you have two problems...welds in the diff have failed, and your no traction problem. If the welds have failed taking the teeth of the spider gears with them, they could be one and the same problem...

cheers

Well got some free time to have a proper look at the problem and found all is in the diff

THINK ITS BROKEN LOL




Looks like the welds have cought in the diff and mashed it.

Anybody got/know were there is one.

I have a 3.64 diff from an injection 360 (or 1.7) kicking around here.

You'll need a cover plate (from the old diff) and one of Mac's gasket kits.

cheers

James

What price we looking at matey and could you weld it up????

Cheers

£25 posted? Sadly I can't weld it...

cheers

James

If you're flogging it, just fit the diff and let the new owner weld it themselves. Once a diff is welded like this, it's bound to come a cropper anyway so let someone else do it......

I would take it to the geezer who sold you it, as you aint had it long...

Got my diff and had it welded





Just need to chuck it on now.

Is that a brand new cover plate....or just cleaned / repainted? Finding good ones now is tricky...they're a fairly nasty design

cheers

James

Not to sure it came like that.

Hoping this one dosnt die on me.
