Hi there y'all
Not sure how to progress.
Need some advice.
I'm seriously considering getting my non-working rear diff sorted as I want to get it 'fixed' before I go off and do any more surveying and offroading (having just returning from spending several weeks doing survey work in Sedgemoor area in Somerset where I was 'green laning' every day, twice a day).
I'm off into NW Wales in October and want to know that I can stick on mi 4 MUD tyres and use Rear Diff as I might well need it in Autumn/Winter.
There's an ARBRD33 available for mi 80 at a cool £800.40 from Devon4x4 but not sure whether I need a brand new unit, just the actuator, or can just have the unit 'reconditioned', 'serviced' or whatever is done to it to get it to work again?
I reckon that maybe I get this sorted before I go.
Should I have the entire unit taken out and given a thorough once over before I do any of the replacement bits thingy?
I'm thinking that it might just be an actuator thing since it seems to be an issue with 80 series but I'm no expert.
I know the Rear Diff has never worked, although the Central and Front do work.
What do you reckon I should do? (Sensible answers please
Cheers
