D80 ring and pinion


Recommended Posts

Might as well plan on a new bearing set.  Timkin set from Rock Auto is about $200 too.  Only stupid thing is the kit doesn't come with the shims.  I got lucky and was able to use the factory stack and be fine.  Is it a limited slip unit? If so, might as well plan on clutches.

I can tell you mine ended up costing around $1000 for parts and $100 to cheat and have a shop to replace the parts in carrier for me. I set the pinion and pattern. So $1100 for me to do just about everything myself.  Pain in the ***.  Meanwhile, I saw a D80 for sale in Nebraska for $450.  If it wasn't an open diff I probably would've gone that route.

I took mine to a local off roading shop for rebuild 1000 with a 2 year warranty

 

Good call, the off road shops will be experienced in Dana axle repair. They are all the same design, from the small 30's in Jeeps to the 80's in our trucks. The Dana axles are the most difficult/complicated to repair of all axles. The GM 14 bolt and Ford 9" are the easiest, in my opinion.

That's what I figured
