Thanks for the help, I just replaced my gasket using this video. Tip: if you take the wheels off, it's actually really easy to line up the bolts on the backing plate, and you don't need a friend's help. As you slide the axle in, the splines on it will make contact with the diff about 3/8" before the bolts go into the ends of the diff housing. So after the axle splines mate with the diff, you can still spin the backing plate into position to mate up the bolts with their holes.

I'm going to try and do this on my Hiace, I thought I had to take the propeller shaft out but this video shows that it's way easier than that. I reckon I've got no gear oil left inside mine. I watched a crazy russian guy run an old sedan dry with one wheel blocked and one off the ground and it took a beating before it welded itself together. Hopefully not too much damage inside. Thanks for the video

Good video. Would be helpful for some people to show you putting the driveshaft back on to the diff.

Cheers for this Trev, I've been thinkin of opening my diff to inspect and replace oil cos I went through a few water holes (no breathers)

No worries you can drop the oil that should be enough flush it a fuew times

@@TRAV30387 yeah true, might just flush it out... reckon i could use diesel to flush? then fill with cheap oil, do a couple hundred Km's then empty and fill with good oil? also is your diff LSD from factory? mine is a 2002 kzn165r sr5, doesnt matter for flushing but just wondering and if yours is lsd what do you think of its locking ability? i have mechanical front lokka and am considering locking the rear aswell

Hey yer mines an lsd id just fill it with oil and do repeat flushes till its clean have you had water go inside the diff?

Cheers for the vid bro! 🤙 Just a quick question when dropping the tail shaft , can you you just bolt it up again ? Or does it have to line back up the way it come off.

@TRAV30387 Жыл бұрын

2:40. No your breather isn't blocked. It's a one-way valve. When you block the filler plug it creates a vacuum. So of course no air can enter the breather. Think about it.
