Very badly broken diff, Pics

I seem to have screwed up my diff, But i am unsure weather or not i have done damage to rear diff? should i replace both? Here are some pics of how bad i broke them

Replace that ASAP - otherwise you will strip teeth all over the shop - look at the mad hat man truck thread fur pics of mine - which all happened within 3 miles!!!!

Replace the rear too then? Doh

if that is the front - then deffo take the rear diff out and check it - dont replace without checking furst - yu gotta remove it one or the other.

couldnt find that thread! ok well i best get to work on the back then! I have a landrover specialist near by is it a good idea to take rear diff to them so they can have a look! I know diffs are pretty complex!

here is the thread - its hidden in there somewhere.

here is a few pics.

Oooo Nice! was it a straight forward operation! I.e take old diffs out, Wack new in and everything is ok?

sort of - remove half shafts (and check them (new gaskets reqd)) and then remove the diff.make sure yu wash the axle out well to wash any crud out of the axle casing. Ensure the lip between axle and brake plate is clean, as the diff oil appears to lubricate the hub bearings.
I am inclined to change the oil again after a 100 or so miles to remove any sludge yu couldnt get to before.
Put a trolley jack under the body of the diff to support its weight as you remove it.
I took the opportunity to check the prop shafts and grease them off the vehicle.
You might want to check the handbrake and rear wheel brakes too.

It sorta grows like topsy

in the last week or so i have changed front wheel bearings and ujs, then the diff went yestarday so i have taken front diff out just started on rear, Got half shafts out, oh and relised i need new rear bearing because they kinda fell out in a million bits, also new oil seal are needed, Think i will buy an axle overhaul kit for front and back as everything does seem to be a little tired, Its a shame really as i only had the landy about 2 months and i paid £3500 for her, never mind Im still smiling!

worth thinking of a brake overhaul kit at the same time if yu got it all in bits - I think its about £37 from Paddocks.

sounds like a plan, May aswell get it all in good shape whilst its in pieces!

how do i know if its a 10 or 24 spline??
