The outer pinion bearing decided to weld itself to the pinion shaft and the race welded to the housing. Last week I was driving to work and I got a nice pop and then roaring noise from under the truck. Pulled over and couldn't tell immediately what it was. Took it back to the house and had a good idea that it was front diff by that point. Pulled the drain plug and got metal flaking and such out of the case and on the magnetic plug. The pinion shaft had some play in it so I pulled the front diff and ordered all new bearings and seals. Then came the realization that the pinion shaft was beyond repair, and the housing. When I drained the oil I only got about half out of the diff that I should. I am assuming based on that it starved for oil and the welding process commenced.Boo. Hiss.
How did that happen?
Contact @orangefj45 he May have a take out.

You'll do better with a phone call to Georg (@orangefj45) . I don't think he spends much time on MUD.

He searches Mud daily for the keywords “@orangefj45 loves Asian Men” so that’s usually how I call his attention to a post
