Need a differential
Hey I blew my differential on my '84 automatic. ratio 307. My mechanic is having trouble finding one. I can find the bearing kits and the crown & pinion parts online but not a whole diff.
Any line on where I can get one? |
Location?
|
Toronto, Canada
|
The shipping is gonna be a killer.
What parts are you looking to get for your Dana 36? Are you looking for a loaded pumpkin or the carrier? Thanks |
You DO NOT want a known '84 D36 3.07. Early '84 D36 were known to be differentials with problems and upon repair required different internals. You want a D36 that's '85 or newer with the 3.07. Using car-part I saw a potential 3.07 but it didn't stipulate D36 auto. A 3.07 D36 usually brings a premium price. I would think they're out there. Scarce and a premium price I'd think.
|
Yes. D36 is good insurance to have.
|
yes the existing / broken one has a 3.07 ratio. 2 teeth broken off the crown ring. Thanks for the heads up. Indeed proving hard to find.
|
2 teeth are broken on the crown. I think that's the extent of the damage. Was hoping to get a whole new diff but proving impossible to find. Might have to repair / rebuild. I can find the bearings and seal kits but can't find the 3.07 gears. Open to either the parts or a whole diff.

Yeah only seeing a "differential assembly" listed in the search list but no results in Canada or US.

Did you find the one that mentions 3.07- you need to understand that many are likely pricing these based on the assumption people are interested in them for 'hot rod' builds. There's maybe many options. I |
seeing a bunch with no ratio listed. some with 3.31. none with 3.07...
|
I'll call around.

800-363-1216/450-375-5151 there's no mention of stock# |
No I found one! Wreckers near me in Toronto has a 3.07 full back end
|
He says it came from an 84 but it was manual. Is the diff the same if it was from a manual or automatic? 3.07 all the same?

JUST REMEMBER - YOU DO NOT WANT ONE FROM AN '84 UNLESS it's very late and you can confirm it's the later carrier and short axles!! |
Oh ok. I'll check it out. Few more possibilities in Toronto too it seems
Thanks again for all your advice. Really appreciate it. |
