Title: diff help
Post by: steven morrison on July 16, 2014, 08:35:26 PM

 So horrible noises coming from the back of my 98 ZJ when pulling away and turning, after removing the diff cover discovered chunks missing on the axle and spider gears, pinion and ring and bearings seem fine. Would like to replace these so here's my question - It's got a ten hole roundish cover is it the a 35?  Can I get hold of these in the UK or do I need to send of for them from USA?

Help bit of a noobie.

It will be a 35 but if you do a search you will find a few threads with photos or diagrams of all the diffs.
The parts you need are all available in the UK but as I have found out recently with the present exchange rate you can save money buying from the US.
Is it worth the saving, compared to having a UK seller to complain to if anything goes wrong? That is up to you.
