Just wondering if anyone can spot what our problem is, we are tearing our hair out and even the diff builder is trying to bodgy things.
we have a 4.56 V6 hilux rear diff housing with an airlocker, we got a set of standard hilux 4.88 gears (not from a V6 housing) and tried to put them in our housing with the airlocker. To get the gears to mesh the crownwheel needs a 6mm spacer between the locker and the crownwheel!! (this is what the diff builder has done but then the bolts aren’t long enough and longer bolts don’t have a shank to locate properly so it’s no good)
What have we done wrong?
Do you require an offset gearset to suit a 4.88 into an airlocker diff?
Do different ratios have different offsets on the crownwheen carrier to suit the ratios??
I hope that sort of makes sense??
Thanks for any help.
