The idea is to give folks the courage to do it there self and a straw color with a torch it what u want folks I’ve done a bunch

Great video! Your a natural. My preferred method in the shop to heat bearings and gears is an old fish fryer filled with some oil and temp is easy to control. Have also use a piece of plate steel set the bearing on top and heat from underneath with torch. Infrared temp gun comes in very handy try not to get over 300 deg F. Keep up the good work and God bless you for passing on your knowledge.

This video has given me the know how to repair the diff on an '81 model Peterbilt that has been sitting for 10 years.

This worked. It was accurate. I watched this video and did it when I realized that the diff lock did not engage and the drive shaft kept spinning. Thanks for great help.

You've done a great service for us novises that have never had the experience of doing this kind of job. Never could figure out how that whole system works. Thanks

This is going to save me a bunch. We usually pull them out and they rehearing the whole thing. Always been gun shy. Not sure why it’s broke how much worse can it get. Got one now that runs fine but power divider lock doesn’t work. U can hear the fork move and axle lock works. Once you see it and watch. Easy as pie. Can’t thank you enough.

Awesome video, I just tore my front differential apart yesterday. I had a pooping upon takeoff and vibration. My truck is a 2016 Peterbilt 579. They confess apart a little different but pretty much the same inside. The yoke has to be removed first and the shift fork is up front and has to shifted around to get the shaft out. Luckily your video helped me realize this was my issue. Parts are ordered and on there way. Spent $1500 to rebuild the whole thing on a D40-155 Spicer. Thanks for the help and making the video.

I put that gear in the freezer part of my beere fridge. Then the bearing on my wood stove . Works great. Good video my guy

Wish I would have found this a couple hrs ago just removed the diff thank you so much for your time you just saved me $$$

Great DIY video. Saved me from replacing the whole chunk

Best video I've seen👍 I was just about to buy the whole diff $4350 now by watching this video I got away with replacing the spider only, at $268 Thank you very much, the Lord bless you 🙏

This is a great method if you're not dealing with broken gear teeth or other metalic debris in the Differential lube oil. Otherwise you'll need to pull the cover and clean the housing thoroughly. You'll probably want to do a quick oil change after reassembly to catch any missed particles.

Man I sure do appreciate that you made this video you saved me a time and troubel and you done a great job explaining the processes envoled with this power divider problem

Awesome 😎 amigo u sure as hell save $$$$ this is better than any class I have ever attend!! Thank you 🙏🏻!!

Great mine just went today. Thanks for the great video. Update. I wasn't so lucky. Mine spun the driven gear on the pinion. So I opted for a good used front rear.

We do need more videos of the semis. Very good and helpful video just wise it was complete from taken out parts also

Great video, very helpful seeing it done. There are some tools , long puller that is needed though. Thank you

Keep continue post videos we are watching and learning

Great Video. And thank-you for the instructions. I think I'm having the same problem, and will do the work myself.

Awesome video you are better than most mechanics 👍👍👍👍😊

I’m working on building a torque splitting 1 ton diff this was a verry good video on how to put it together looking inside the housing was great

perfect torque on that pinion nut you need to yell click click, great video thnx again

Great video. This guy is my kind of people

You are the man!!great video

I can relate to this O/O......Thank you for posting this video. Nice job.

Great job explaining. Thank you

My guy 🤝 you done good you done good. Keep making vids and sooner than later this will only be more of a hobby than a job. Great Vid

Great work man thanks

Man that’s a pretty good video the camera loves you good job

Thank you for this video I’m getting ready to do my power divider aswell and was planning to remove the entire third member but not anymore

Good job Sr.

aaaaand this is why all of our rear ends became truckers lol..... great detailed video man, thanks!

A kitchen hot plate will also work to heat and expand the cone . Camshaft gear on Caterpillar engines will heat up the same way . 120/23

Thanks for sharing your info

Wonderful video brother

Very helpful video

I just had a guy come into my shop with a truck he blew the yoke off of it and fix that himself and then said the rear end was screwed up, I haven’t tied into it yet but I am guessing it’s the spider gears. Thanks for the info very helpful.👍🏼

Good helpful video. Well done.

Awesome help thanks

Good work mate 👍, i'm a diesel mechanic 🤝

Thanks for the video

Great video !!!!!!

Great video

Glad I came across this video

You are the man thankz a lot 👍👍👍

I subscribed to your channel. Good job

Thank you, keep it up. 💯

Thank u bud I appreciate that video and the money

Can't really agree with the torch thing (hot gear oil would be better in my opinion) but it's been done without incident many a time, at least you're smart to have Rockwell rear ends !!! I hate Spicer and Eaton and meritor axles myself I like Mack and Rockwell personally !!! Both as a former mechanic and Driver, a couple of long dowel pins to help get that front assembly to slide in helps alot, be careful about silicone blocking the oil holes and passages, to, All the best to you and yours Sir.

Thank you great video so much respect

Gracias, Great Video.

Thank you very much, very helpful.

Great video I usually put the gear in the freezer instead of using torch on bearing

Thank you. I literally just blew mine a couple of hours ago

Very Very nice video ilike it

Thanks brother.

Great video couldn't have done any better myself I would have done that the same as you just did no different

Great video for sure. But am now seeing this video from my motel 😂😂😂. My truck is in the shop at this moment because the power divider, output shaft seal jump out.

Thank you

Pretty sure I could do it after watching this! Need an outro Joe!

Wana heat bearings to 100°c/212°f ? Wrap in wet towel put in microwave DO NOT let towel dry out. Perfect every time.

Awesome 👍

Thank you boss

I have a mack and the only way it will move is if I put the lockers in would this kit work for that

You know the bud is gúd when you agree w/every comment

If I'm just changing the bearings behind the yoke , do I pull that nose cone and assembly like that ?

Good job Please I need parts list for DP581P DANA SPLICER differential

I got this problem in a automatic dd13. Where they only got 2 bolts connected to the drive shaft yoke. The bolts keeps sheering off stupid

What does it mean if my inner axle differential is stuck on. The shift cylinder moves back-and-forth when I take the air supply off and push it with a screwdriver but when it’s jacked up both axles have to be up to turn. It’s not an old international, it has air going to the cylinder when I actuate the dash switch. The collar must be stuck. What parts do I need besides the shift cylinder housing that I rounded the nut on trying to get off?

Hey how’s it goin my pinion cover cap (the cap where the spider gear pieces would fall into) busted . . I can manually change gears and it works but in auto the Axel spins loose . . I lock the differential and it changes gears as when I did it manual but it will spin loose in auto on its own . . What do look to replace before removal . . (Especially if I may end up paying someone)?! Edit: Hell of a vid and Bison approach to retorquin the yolk

How much up and down play before you have to do this to you rear axle?

Thank you! You saved me a lot of money and time. Where do you get the rebuild kit? I’m having a time finding one. I have a Dana spicer DS 521 P 4: 33gear ratio

Down and dirty.....Don't be skeered.....excellent vid...BLIZZARD of 1977...front rear end started popping on the way to St. Louis....Crossroads' food was getting bad...ran across the old bridge trying to avoid the roadblocks...cops stopped me trying to get on I-55 and escorted me to American Legion at Monee....smudge pot in a snowbank and a kind-hearted local got us a ride into Chicago Kenworth for a reman chunk.....froze my ass off in that snowbank putting it back together....sure was happy to be back on the way to Gateway 2 days later.....Ahh, those were the days ...LMFAO

On my truck Rear left driver side wheel spinning but the other drives don't differential switch on. What can be the issue?

Greatness

All of my gears and bearings look good. The input shaft just sheered clean. Would you suggest me getting the input shaft kit? Or just the new input shaft. I know the video is 3 years old. Just looking for some input

Bearing can be heat in a oil bath

I've seen a young driver use the wrong gear on a shallow incline with a Peterbilt hauling a D-9 dozer on a low boy and cleaned that divider right off ...just from a wrong gear selection..and a lot of weight ..

What is the ton rating on your 3 jaw puller. I am a heavy equipment mechanic, and have a variety of pullers, but I really need one like the one you are using in this video thanks.

I notice strange lines (almost like search marks) on my rear drive axle super single tires. More lines on driver side tire. The front drive axle tires are perfectly fine. Just wondering whether this could be a differential axle issue? Any thoughts? Suggestions?

I agree. Bet on the spiders or splines being the problem.

Forged them for 20 years with Eaton Corporation and a few years with Dana .

I was stuck on uneven ground and I locked the interaxle diff while the wheel is spinning. Now, it's not locking anymore and I don't have four wheel drive if I get stuck again. Will this job fix my problem?

If I could add, just use your house oven to heat the bearing. 200 to 250 degrees will be plenty.

Where we can get the parts for this.

I have slack up and down at the pinion yoke just was rebuilt two weeks ago could it not be shimmed correct?

If your going to clean out the pumpkin use two all thread bolts to slide the diff out enough to clean the pumpkin then slide it back in.

I had a leak between my front differential and the power divider. I waited to fix it, and blew two wheel seals out in the meantime. When I opened it up, the gear lube was milky. Fixed everything and haven’t had a problem since. I’m wondering if that compromised gear lube allowed that diff to get hot and melt those seals? I’d be curious what yours looks like when you drain it.

I would loosen yoke nut before removing unit first.

In the side of the road? Anyway, great video

I got issue in Volvo vnl power divider . Front ,2.47 ratio , no axle lock . Does anybody have knowledge about it

Great video. I missed what model truck.

Great video are the power dividers the same on all the different gear ratios

Awesome video man ? One question! Where did you order the input shaft kit from?

My pete will not move I heard a pop and it stopped pulling. I can put it in gear and the driveshaft just spins. If I put on the differently the truck will move. Does this sound almost like your problem? Thanks in advance

Hello Where are you located? How much would you charge to build me one like that for my 07 Columbia 10 speed trans with Detroit engine?

Is the bearing race for the out put shaft suppose to spin?

Good stuff! I'm starting to think the rear end in the rear axle of my truck is going bad. I've been chasing a vibration that's getting worse, tonight I grabbed the driveshaft and turned it back and forth and it seems to have a lot of play and a clunk in it. I'm trying to figure out if that's normal or not?
