Differential Problems


Recommended Posts

Posted

hi

i have a 1998 Yukon and i installed 12.5x33x15 wheels and ever sense i changed three differentials and i overhauled the last one and when i checked it after first run the axles got bended so i replaced them with another set but they gut bended after first try so could any one help and tell whats wrong but don't tell me that the tiers are heavy because my friend have a similar truck and no problems.

 

thanks

so what do you think is the solution :(

Stronger Diffs

14 bolt rear and dana 60 up front.

 

 

Either that or your getting inferior parts. Maybe go with something stronger, not stock replacement. There is no way you should be breaking diffs with 33's though...even 10-bolts.

Could you describe your problem in a bit more detail and uses sentences? proper grammar would help too...

 

what exactly is "gutting bended" (getting bent)?

 

and what do you mean by "first try"? are you racing at a track?

 

are the axles breaking? is the housing bending? lol what's going on?

Fist I want to apologize fore my poor English

My differential axles got bent near the end outer flange and the other is bent at the sinter off the shaft so the tires are bouncing up and down while rotating and that all after a test run on the street

Yeah Matt...pretty sure the guy's first language isn't English...That's why I let it go...I looked at his first name...

 

By test drive on the street, do you mean you got out and put your peddle to the floor, did a burnout and got wheel hop...thats what bent your axles?

 

 

Something tells me your truck may have a little more power than a stock 350...an I correct in assuming this??

Ahhhh shucks. I see what you mean.

 

I was somewhat serious in my post though... i really tried reading it 3-4 times to decipher what his actual problem was and sincerely wanted a more accurate description of what was going on.

 

Seeing that English probably is his 2nd language and he's not someone being extremely lazy... i apologize if I came off a little harsh (unfortunately we do get people who post like that, and English is their language!)

And back on topic:

 

Either that truck has a lot more HP than a stock truck OR somethings going on with the installation/part. Do you have any pictures? Maybe you got the wrong axles?

 

Were the axles used from a junk yard or brand new?
