You will need:

- Socket Torx 45
- Wrench or socket 24
- Screwdriver or punch
- Rubber mallet and plain
- Universal Puller
- wooden block to break flange sealants punching attack and if we do not have a puller
- metal bushings of the same width as replacements sealants or something similar.
- Oil pan

We begin by washing the diff with dirt.

drained oil.

Unscrew the pinion flanges key 24 and nailing it or take off with the turnbuckle universal

Unscrew the back cover for removal of security driveshaft flanges (version with bolt-on axle shafts )





To remove the flanges have to pull the axle shafts security segger

Clean the surface and remove burrs if any arose when removing sealant

New sealant assemble slowly and sensitively .

How much torque to be applied on each bolt when re-assembly?


Darek32 - 17/1/14 at 11:43 PM

I can;t find how much but

40 Nm is for the oil level screw

.... so 60Nm is enough i think

100 Nm is for tire bolt
