First Post, Hi,
Somebody (no names, you know who you are, junior) has been using reverse as a brake on Grandaddys Commando (?) (1-0120, s/n 131202, 1"d/shaft).
I found seven diff pinion teeth in the bottom of the case. But the rest of the box and diff is ok.
A dealer in Michigan is offering a ring gear and 8 pinions from a 520 H on Ebay for very handy money.
These pinions have the same number (101623)in parts lists for both the 520 and the 1-0120.
Trouble is, the dealer wants twice as much international freight on that lot as he does for a complete electro 12 diff/drive shaft Assy.
So I'm wondering whether the pinions off the 520, although they look the same as mine in the photo, are loads bigger? Or if it's just his Friday afternoon guestimate postage?
Anybody see a problem if I use 4, keep 4 spare?
Appreciate hearing your ideas before I start winging bits of differential on expensive 14 day journeys back and forth across the Atlantic,
cheers,

And many thanks to gwest_ca for posting these lists.
