Did it run out of fluid? It looks like the gears got hot and melted. I have seen one do this at Road Atlanta after it lost fluid from a leaking seal and an ignorant owner who ignored all the little p

Looks like the pinion was way to deep. I doubt if a break-in procedure could have prevented failure, but as Marcel says, checking the temperature of the diff could have stopped the damage. The likely

I don't see any bluing on the ring gear teeth and Greg didn't mention stinky oil smell. Assuming the setup was correct, I'd like to know where Greg got the parts. We all have experience with the qual

Thanks guys for all the feedback. So far I have only put the car in the air and pulled the cover. There is ample evidence of excessive heat so something went wrong with my setup. I might get the chan

Wasn't this the new set of gears? If so, they were new old stock from England. They once belonged to Jim Ealy, who owned a black, 1966 TR4A race car. I bought his junk yard to get his race car and th

The "92" is the "matched set" number and should correspond with the set number on the ring gear. The other number is the difference in pinion shimming from the "normal". Haha, what is normal? On Sat,

There is a factory set of tools that one uses to measure pinion depth before taking a diff apart. Then you set the new pinion at the same depth plus or minus the number on the gear. Barry From: John

Barry, when you are measuring TR pinion depth, where are you measuring from and to? The TR3 manual only has the dimension from the front face of the pinion to the center of the ring gear which would

The tool has several parts. One is a temporary replacement for the pinion gear and the other sits in the bearing saddles of the carrier. Both the carrier and pinion are removed to use the tool. You i

I can't answer that but one could measure the dimension of the pinion head and subtract it from the total shown to get the depth you would want. Bob Kramer -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scru
