Hi, does anyone know where these can be obtained or reconditioned? I have tried all the usual places but no joy. My diff feels quite rough when turning the prop manually. I have been recommended to swap the whole diff/axle assemble as swapping the diff on it's own is problematic?
Thanks for any help, Simon

Re: Sprint axle/diff assembly
How quickly do you need it done? My garage will be finished being built in about a month or so, so I may be in a position to look at it before the end of the year.
Sprintless for the first time in 35+ years.

Hi Paul, already tried Fitchetts - no luck.
Hi Mart, thanks for the offer, there's no desperate hurry but I have been recommended a local engineering company (Solent Gearboxes) who do diffs on classics and are going to take a look. I'll try them as not far from me.

Ian at Crucial Automatics in Titchfield has worked on my Sprint and TR6, not cheap but very good. Worth a phone call.

Mike Papworth at Coventry did the differential on my 1500 a few years ago, sound job.
