Dear Morganeers,
I have been working on the rear axle for my '54 plus 4. It is a
Salsbury 3HA differential and I have been using a copy of Tim Cree's
article (on parts interchangeability) from an old Miscellany and
another article (on wheel bearing and seal replacement, I think by Bob
Adair).
Now that I have the hubs off (using a big puller) and one axle out
(slide hammer puller), I can see that the whole axle should be cleaned
out and rebuilt. This brings me to my question:
Does anyone have a Jaguar MkII 2.4 workshop manual or a copy of the
section on rebuilding the rear axle? The Cree article lists this as
the most "common" car using a 3HA axle.
I don't know if I'll tackle the differential rebuild myself, but I
would at least like to learn about the process. I can supply copies
of the above articles if anyone needs them. I have also rebuilt the
Moss gearbox for the same car and can offer info and advice on this
process.
