eVIL_NTT Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I have a '82 4WD GL wagon and I just replaced the right side front axel with a new unit, and it has sheered two locking pins in pieces when moderate torqure is applied. What could be causing this? The old axel had an outer boot rip from a bad steering rack (since replaced) but wasn't eating pins before I removed it.

GeneralDisorder Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 It's the wrong axle - they gave you an EA82 25 spline axle for a turbo model. I'm surprised you were able to install it at all. Either that or they used the wrong DOJ cup when they built it. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eVIL_NTT Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 Well, it looked like the old axel and it slid right on and fit with no problems. It is a new unit not reman, I will have to check to see if the part number has an application description. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
