is there anyway to tell if ird is shot or diff mounts etc ? or is it just a case of process of elimination?
IRD - check for play at the pinion where the prop attaches. Drain the oil and inspect for grey sludginess or metal bits. Remove the pinion and plate while oil drained and inspect the gears within.is there anyway to tell if ird is shot or diff mounts etc ? or is it just a case of process of elimination?
ok will do, i think i may have taken on something more than i planned on.IRD - check for play at the pinion where the prop attaches. Drain the oil and inspect for grey sludginess or metal bits. Remove the pinion and plate while oil drained and inspect the gears within.
Diff mounts - wiggle up and down and left and right. You should see if any of the rubber webs are broken.
No - we don't mean to scare you but make you aware of possible problems. Your VCU isn't that tight so it's unlikely you'll need anything more than a recon one and bearings. And a couple of tyres.ok will do, i think i may have taken on something more than i planned on.
Might hold on to one as the spare is done for
