    Default Barb snapped on diff

    Hi guys,

    Got a little problem. I bought the diff and when they delivered it the barb got damaged. Are these easily removed from the diff and replaced?



    Cheers
    Steve

    The "barb" He is refering to is the breather outlet where the breather hose connects. Not easy to get out. Best and easiest thing to do is get another rear cover from a wreaker or somewhere.

    Or i have a diff for sale..... 4.11 ratio minispool.. $600.

    No i haven't but I can see one side has already sheared so no point in trying. It will snap off and leave the remainder of the barb/nipple inside the diff. which will be a pain to remove.
