Guys,
Apologies for not responding sooner, but other things came on my way, so this had to wait … In the meantime I heard back from the technical inspection (Belgian DMV) and I have to replace my rear axle… I removed the original leaf spring perches and welded new once on the underside to lower the backend … Seems this is forbidden in Belgium as it’s a cast-iron axle… So I’ve been chasing the internet/used parts sites/etc, and I finally found another 12-bolt truck, which seems to be like the one I have … I still have to see if my axles fit (new rear came with 6x5.5, while I have 5x5 wheels) , but the width and the spline count are ok…
When I opened the diff, I saw something weird mounted on the carrier … searched the web, and it looks like it’s a G80, but then I only find it for 14bolt rear ends …
Does anybody have more info on this ?
Is it good or should I throw it out ?
