Oh Man I Need A Rear Axle!

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   In my quest to prepare my Willys for a trip from Detroit to Moab, I have discovered a bent flange that holds the ring gear in place (the bolts backed out, then pried the flange up). 
So now I need a rear axle. Anyone have one they're willing to part with?

	I have one I would be happy to give you. Don't know how the heck to get it to you in Detroit. I am in WV near DC.

	Your differential isn't a total loss, just replace the open carrier and gears. Any good or master technician can do this job. I would if you were closer. No sense in wasting a good housing and dealing with all the other things that will arise when changing entire housing.

	Dave, if you haven't already handled this, a trip to Ron H's place might be the easiest. PM me if you need me to check the storage unit for a carrier.
