Thanks for you help that seems very reasonable as ford wants 800 for just the ring gear. I was able to score the assembly for slightly less on ebay. They made a lot of 8n's so it pays to search for a while not something you can do in spring but now is a good time to be patient. regards Jon

hope the parts you get off ebay are good.

for similar money I'd have bought mr smiths. his stuff is better than pictured, and comes with free advice if needed when installing.

good luck!

I'll second that. John Smith is a total straight up guy.

i agree i wouldn't wont to buy any parts off of ebay unless new because you never really know the condition until you get it and like i have seen (when my customers have decided to buy off ebay instead of from me to save a few dollars) the parts can be worse off than what you already have and nobody to bring it back to or talk to

 

[Soundguy]

yep.. I've recieved worse than I started with from ebay before..

Thanks for everyones help. Just need to muscle on the wheels and test her out. Ebay diffy looked good but still have the original less the ring gear if the spiders are an issue. Think I got the preload right, wish they still built stuff so easy to work on... Once you have a tractor you can't work without it. Thanks again. Jon

Now that everything seems OK I'll tell you all I paid $22.50 for the complete differential and pinion assembly. I think it was worth the gamble. See how long it lasts... thanks again

 

[Soundguy]

good deal on that price!
