3.14 Differential Refurb #1

Managed to get a 3.14 diff from eBay for a good price. I plan to clean it up and then to use it as a spare, maybe in time get an LSD fitted.

First job was to remove the back plate to check that it actually is a 3.14 and also to look at the crown wheel, pinion and planed gears for wear. The bolts on the back plate eventually moved with the exception of one which I broke a hex bit on. I ground the head off and then removed the back plate.

It is a 3.14, all looks fine and the gears all look tidy. 

The diff was really dirty, caked in mud and grease. First I jet washed off the mud, then applied de-greaser and jet washed again. Next I cleaned the casing with wire brushes to get ready for paint.

Removed the diff flange, used a gear puller to remove the flange from the splined shaft. The diff flange looks heavily rusted and needs a good clean. Read somewhere about electrolysis cleaning so might have a go to clean it up.

Masked off the edges of the diff and ready for paint.
