i am sure you would have to stop because you felt sick before the diff wears out
hi peeps. Just wondering if the oil is free to slosh from end to end or if its held by the diff somehow?
Cheers!
oil its held inside the axle by bearings as far as I could tell.
But they are at the hub ends, so I think it can slosh freely. Thats what I found anyway, but best wait for someone clever.
If i remember right the English axle has some baffle plates in it!
Oils eals on the outside of the wheel bearings, oil can slosh back and forth to its
hearts content and keep those shiny bearings healthy.
so if you drove round and round in a circle then the inner bearing and diff would eventually fail?

Most diff oils are fairly viscous and don't slosh about much!
