8 tooth pinion???

Post by georgey »

So I travelled 6 hrs in the car today to pick up 2 complete hilux diffs with a 4.88 ratio.
Old mate said they were fine and when I checked them they seemed fine and spun smoothly.
When I got home I pulled the rear centre out and it's missing a tooth off the pinion :bad-words:
Where can I get an 8 tooth pinion from?
Or does anyone have a spare from a broken centre?

If the front is also broken I'll be going and getting my Monet back plus time wasted.
Thanks

The cw+p are a matched set. No swapsies allowed.

So I can't get another 4.88 centre with a broken CW and just use the pinion?
I can't see toyota making them all slightly different but may be wrong.

As stated, CW&P are a matched set, and should not be swapped.

I think your chances of finding a diff with a buggered CW but a good pinion are slim.

Even if it works, it won't be as strong as a matched pair.
