I need some advice on what to do or which way to go w/ this truck. I had a seal go bad on the right rear of the truck right after Ihad went out riding around one night, so I gathered up all I would need to replace it and when I pulled the cover off the diff I noticed that the carrier case was cracked all the way across from side to side and traveled half way around it. As if that weren't bad enough news beings this is my DD, I figured I would try and buy a used rear end that had a l/s and the 4.10 gears to get it back up and running, until I could save the $$$ to fix it. They sent me the wrong axle assembly and now not wanting to refund it, after the fact of me fighting w/ them for over a week because they shipped it to B.F.E!! So I turned to craigslist to try finding a local one instead of dealing w/ parts brokers and wouldnt u know, found one out of a 03 edge. I know that it is 28 spline, not 31 but it had the l/s 4.10 and 10" drums, so i opted to use it for the time being. After driving 3hrs in a borrowed car to pick it up from my father in laws house after the purchase, I find out that the axle housing on the right side is bent and leaking fluid from a fresh seal, and new axle replacement. After trying to contact the seller about the problem it seems nobody knows where he went. Now I'm feeling a little livid about this whole situation, no $$$, no ride, and no idea of who, what, where , when why, or how I'm goin to fix this, but by god i will not let it whoop me yet!
So now, here I am asking for any and or all the advise I can get on what, how, where should I start w/ this so as I can get back on the road a.s.a.p? Thank u for ur time and sorry about the long rant this is one of my first attempts at trying this on any forums or apps
