Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi guys,

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

Bloody Staffies, got one myself, came home to my brand new CAT boots chewed to the knackery

LOL my staff chewed through the front brake line

Hmmmm ... damage so far for our 10 month old male pup is (as I can remember it!)

- 3 pairs ski masks
- a wetsuit
- 1 pair wetsuit boots
- wooden rudder on our sailing dinghy
- a cushion off our lounge suite
- 2 dog kennels (no kidding ... gnaws until it just falls apart!)
- bottom radiator hose
- various of the wife's shoes ... fortunately though the dog has the same likes (and dislikes!) as I have, so wasn't too unhappy with his choice of shoes to chew

Unbelievably destructive when they get bored ... I feel for you with the CAT boots, dano!

Thanks heaps for the link, want33s.

i used to breed staffys until they started getting stolen, so i got a mastif X ridgeback to stop people from stealing them (4 in 2 years) after owning the mastif x ridge i pissed the staffys off, stupid animals (1 in 10 are okish ) and brought a mastif x bull arab bitch for him and never looked back. keeped my fisrt mastif ridge till he was 11y old RIP now got great a dane x ridge in his replace, great low maintaiance, smart, loyal dogs.

IMHO some people are byass i was to till i saw the light.
