Had the pleasant experience this morning of finding my two Staffies have jumped the fence separating my secure carport from the back yard, and had a field day with my mid-rebuild Zook and tools ...
Fortunately despite about 15L of oil now over the floor (oil bottles make such a great snack, don't ya reckon?) the dogs are both fine ... luckily I have been storing my antifreeze in a locked shed *just in case* this ever happened, 'cos dogs love the sweetness of antifreeze yet a few good licks can kill them.
Anyways, I had two Richmond Lockrite sitting there waiting to go in, and the dogs have chewed the instructions and scattered bits all over the floor and even on our rear lawn
What I have been able to find for each kit is:- 1 x left driver gear
- 1 x right driver gear
- 1 x long pinion shaft
- 2 x short pinion shafts
- 4 x stop pins
- 2 x spacers / washers
- 4 x large springs
- 4 x small orange springs (although for one kit I am missing one of these)
Is this all that should be in there? And any ideas where / how I can get another of the small orange springs that I'm missing?
I'm very tempted at this point to just hand the car to a diff specialist, shell out the dough and have them take care of it for me (it's cheaper than getting pinion shafts surgically removed from my dog!), so would they be able to match the missing spring?
Cheers!
Tim
