Just a few pics to show what can happen if you get vast amounts of muddy water in your diff.
Picked this axle up of a friend, who did have extended breathers fitted!
Well i suppose the only way to resolve this problem is to weld the diff up and fit it in my casing
The importance of extended diff breathers...
Re: The importance of extended diff breathers...
the hub selas are still only single lipped seals (to keep oil in), when i did my hubs etc I fitted 2 seals one one way and one the other this way you keep the oil in and the water and crap out

Nice. Looks like someone's got the squits.
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

I was thinking about welding rear diff, does make much difference on the road? i.e;dangerous.
Re: The importance of extended diff breathers...
slow speed you can hear the inside wheel scrubbing.
I was a bit nervous about doing it, but all came apart and went back together easily.
At speed un noticable, but this is on dry conditions. On the gravel yard, its a bit of a drifter.
Offroad will be the tester for me though
I think it would be safe, but you have to change driving styles if you get me
