Hey Folks,
Had my front axle lock up on my 110tlb the other night. I found oil puking out of the axle where the driveshaft meets the front diff. I took the axle off the tractor today and found that input bearing on the diff had let go. I took the carrier out of the axle to get at the pinion to put new bearings on. Here is the problem, I found chips in two of the teeth on the ring gear. The one has about half the height or the tooth missing in the middle, and the other just a small chip. I am thinking that I will re-install the ring and pinion. Any opinions on this? I dont see it being a big problem because it isnt a high speed differential (compared to a car or truck), and I use the hoe more than the front bucket.
Thanks for your time,
Kyle
