Diff repairer (Midalnds)

Dug out my knacked 3.14 7" sierra diff from the garage at the weekend (fight you all off with a big stick)

Suspect the outer roller Pinion Bearing has a problem (vertical slop\\play on the front drive flange)

Repair kits seems cheap enough (shame is : I had a friend who worked for Timken, before she dumper her boyfriend and moving to the states with her girlfriend )

I've spent some time researching DIY overhaul and figure I wouldn't get past removing the splined nut in front of the bearing. (20 odd specialist tools listed)

A Job for the pros

Any recommendations for gearbox\diff repairers in the Leicester-Hinckley\Midlands area?

Cheers,

James.

It would be nice for it to be £50, but I'm not sure you get anything done for that these days

That's a link for the past - When summers where dry!!!

.....& There's loads of things you can get done for 50 quid these days - Such as prop-shaft adjustment- balancing

Looks like he(they) still haven't figured out a web presence (6 years on)

...Still appear to be listed at that address though!
