My buddy Greg Lightfoot bought a pair of Dana 44's off a diff. website. They belong to a guy from BC. This is his rig.
The guy hauled the diff to Calgary, then his father in law took it to Edmonton, and Greg picked it up and hauled it home to Lloydminster. The seller told me one axle had splines that were twisted. He took the diff into a mechanic to have his gear set and locker put in. The mechanic pulled it apart and showed Greg what he got.
- bent housing
- 2 bent axles
- splines twisted off one axle
- carrier bearing exploded
- ghetto fabbbed bigger drum brake assembly ready to tear off
So the thing is garbage. I sent these pics to the seller, be was very ignorant to deal with, but agreed to send Greg his money back. That was 3 weeks ago. After several phone calls and emails he finally pm'd me to say he is waiting to send the refund until he can verify that he will get all the pieces back. He wants me to haul this piece of crap 275km to Edmonton and give it to the Gear center so they can look at it.
DO not deal with this guy. His word means nothing.
This post will be removed and all forgiven if he mans up and refunds Greg for the useless diff.
