Razon Date registered: Jul 2008 Location: Vancouver, BC Vehicle(s): 1986 280ge Cabrio, 617A, 5sp manual | WANTED: W460 complete rear axle 4.88 gear ratio. As the title says, I'm looking for a complete rear axle for my '86 gwagen. It needs to have 4.88 gears, and it has to be in good condition. If anyone has one or knows where I can get one, please let me know. Thanks! Edited by Razon 3/9/2015 6:56 PM | ||

You'll want a SWB axle because the LWB housing is different (trailing arm brackets welded on at different angles to achieve different pinion angle). I'm curious to learn what happened to your old axle, broken ring gear teeth? Hope you are well! | ||

Short answer is: broken locker and main carrier diff bearing on the locker side. I think the locker broke 1'st, then the pieces got in the bearing and destroyed it. Some places are not easy to get to. The G still got me home though (IMG_3539 (Medium).JPG) (IMG_3540 (Medium).JPG) (IMG_3541 (Medium).JPG) (IMG_3571 (Medium).JPG) Attachments ---------------- IMG_3539 (Medium).JPG (152KB - 1 downloads) IMG_3540 (Medium).JPG (99KB - 1 downloads) IMG_3541 (Medium).JPG (76KB - 1 downloads) IMG_3571 (Medium).JPG (197KB - 1 downloads) | ||
