So, today we dropped the front diff and opened it up (see pics). What we see is a box of broken bits, smashed up gears and stripped spline shafts along with busted up inner casing. Oh there is some heavy duty paste, which in another life would have been used as diff oil.
What a mess.
So no we are refitting the replacement diff that came from eBay /Lithuania all the way to little old me in the UK.
We are feeling good so far and hope to update tonight saying that all is good and we are back & running smoothly again.
If anybody wants to purchase a cast metal bin full of crushed up bearings and fragments of shrapnel? Just drop me a note.
