TRIUMPH TR6 Rear Differential Oil Seal Replacement & Overhaul 

Wow, terrific! All the forum posts put the fear of god in me to try this yet you've made it look easy.

Brilliant video, top tip on separating the hubs, thanks for that, when you speed your video up sounds like you are in a formula 1 pits.lol.

First, very informational video. Since we are lucky enough to have a spare differential to change seals out without our car being down, we decided to do this. We did the bolt them together and that worked awesome on one, but not the other. We had a 6 ton press, wouldn't budge the other one. A buddy had a 20 ton, no luck there either. Took to a local machine shop and they had a 100 ton press. It finally broke loose at 80 ton. Who would have thought it would take that much pressure.

Very clearly explained, I wish we had RU-vid 40 years ago!..😁😁

I've watched many of your videos and must say you've got a great style of both doing the work and explaining the work. It's like having a close friend and Not To worry. Very good videos. Thanks

Excellent video. Very well done. The drain plug addition is brilliant!

Well done Martin. Both the work and video are top notch!

Nice job. Glad you were able to get to those axle oil seals without too much trouble. They can be a bear.

Brilliant approach to separating the stub axles. I will be trying that soon! I only do one thing differently in that I leave the seal plates loose until the flanges are bolted up, under the assumption that it centers just a little more accurately.

Excellent!

I'm on to changing my diff's seals following your magical video. I've changed the nose seal and found that the nut was rather easy to remove. In your video you mention at 24:21 that the torque on this nut is 90-100 FT-#'s whereas in the repair manual (section 51.25.19 steps 29 and 32) it is only 90-120 IN-#'s . This would explain why mine was so easily removed. Thought you might want to know this and verify it yourself. Cheers.

Just before I begin I'd like to thank you for these excellent, informative video's you've made Martin. I decided to have a go at changing the nose seal and half shaft seals following your step by step methods. Once I had removed the old nose seal the main shaft has quite a bit of play in it and is now really gritty whilst trying to turn it. Because of it being in an upright position in the vice I have to lift the shaft to be able to rotate it from being rough as hell under its own weight. Therefore im guessing that the inside bearing which I can see needs replacing or the gears/ cogs on the inside are worn. Would you have any further knowledge on this problem please Martin as im only a budding novice. Regards Paul

Very nice job! How many miles are on the car?
