Anyone have a TR6 pinion seal in stock that they'd be willing to drop in a
fed-ex envelope (I'll provide the account #) Axle seals too, but they are
less critical.

Got one with lube pouring out of it...

On a related note, disassembled two TR6 diffs over the weekend. Both have
the same failure mode, both appear to have had cracks in the pinion gear
that come from a stress riser from the original machining. One in fact had
a tooth break in half with the crack underneath still in place (and still
oil stained). Both have had a tooth shear off at the base of the tooth with
obvious beach marks rolling across the root.

Other than too much HP, any suggestions as to why?

Andy: I have a TR4 axle set for you...

Thanks!
