IFS Right Inner Drive Shaft Failure - Found the problem!
I had a Detroid Locker fitted a week ago.
After fitment I went to test the locker, no hard core wheeling, just some cross axle test to check the locker in action.
I heard a Klank noise and discovered I did't have front diff operation anymore.
I first thought it was the crown that failed as it was discovered that 4 gear teeth were damages, the locker was however fitted onto the faulty crown as I decided to order upgraded gears from USA.
Well during my test I thought that the crown wheel finally failed completely but now it looks like the
right hand inner side shaft and CV joint pulled out of the diff pumpkin with about an inch.
What does this mean, did I beak my side shaft?
Is there some kind of retaining clip that should keep the side shaft locked inside which broke?
Can anyone shed some light on this problem please.
Thanks

Looks if they did not push the shaft in that it lock. It has a retaining ring on the tip of the shaft that lock into the diff.

Once you've pushed the side shaft into the locker carrier, how do you fit the retaining spring onto the end of the side shaft?

Is it possible that the Detroid locker could have shattered completely allowing the right hand side shaft gear and side shaft itself to shift outwards?

Re: IFS Right Inner Side Shaft/CV Failure - Comments Please!
The ring, called a SNAP RING, is already in a groove on the tip of the shaft that go into the diff. It is just a bit bigger than the shaft, this locate into the groove of the centre portion that locks it into position. If it do not lock and you 4x4 it will work for a bit and come out, it buggers up the seal and can damage the splines of the shaft and inside of the centre portion if you drive tooo far with it.

Thanks Cassie
Ek sal nou maar wag tot ek terug is van Liberia en die diff kan oop kry vir die 4.88 upgrade om te sien wat aangaan.
Dankie vir julle hulp.

Re: IFS Right Inner Side Shaft/CV Failure - Comments Please!
Cassie daai wat jy wys is presies die Snap ring. Johannes, het jy al die diff se olie afgetap? Gewoonlik sal jyt klein stukke metaal in die olie kry as daar iets gebreek het, ook die olie kan in sommige gevalle 'n duidelike silver kleur he.

Re: IFS Right Inner Side Shaft/CV Failure - Comments Please!
As jy jou IFS wil hou kan jy ook kyk na 'n LSD voor, hy clutch darem nog so bietjie die vooraste.
Prysgewys loop hy tussen 'n Detroit en 'n ARB selectable.

Re: IFS Right Inner Side Shaft/CV Failure - Comments Please!
Wees net seker oor LSD, geneig om te engage op die verkeerde tye, as die wielle begin spin as jy op gaan oor rots kan dit dit te skielik engage en ook goed breek. Ook jy het spesiale olie nodig om die diff reg te laat werk.
Sal graag wil weet as Hoppy die bakkie weer het wat was die oorsaak. Hy moet fotos vat. Mens is nooit te oud om te leer.

Klomp op Ebay, hier is voorbeeld "http://global.ebay.com/TOYOTA-75-FRONT- ... 94923/item"
Hierdie Truetracs loop op gewone diffolie, nie meer soos die LSD's van ouds nie. Eerste generasie LSD's het wearing parts gehad, het gewerk amper soos n friction clutch.
Pieter jy is mos 'n man wat ken van imports, so jy kan vir ons inlig wat sal die totale kostes beloop.
Ek stel ook belang in so 'n LSD, laat weet as jy 'n paar gaan inbring asb.

Re: IFS Right Inner Side Shaft/CV Failure - Comments Please!
'N LSD (Limited Slip Diff) en 'n True-Track (non-selectable locker) is glad nie die selle ding nie. Dis heel onwaarskynlik dat 'n LSD skielik in-skop nie.

Re: IFS Right Inner Side Shaft/CV Failure - Comments Please!
OK, Jammer! Dan is ek verkeerd in my verstand dat die true-track 'n locker is, .... unless hulle 'n kombinasie van non-selectable locker en LSD daarin het.

He HE, Lsd diff se prinsiep werk op clutches meestal. Soos Andy se gaan nie net sommer engage, behalwe as jy voet sit kan dit so bietjie vinnig vat.
Meeste LSD diffs moet LSD olie gebruik, geen ander, moet meer olie changes ook doen om te verseker dat die diff reg werk. As olies nie gecheck word nie gaan die plate vasplak teen mekaar en dan gaan die diff permanet gelock wees.

Re: IFS Right Inner Side Shaft/CV Failure - Comments Please!
No offense taken Johannes ..... We live and learn! (Mostly from each other, here). But now I'm curious about the inner workings of the TrueTrac ... gears, helical or otherwise don't just slip.

Re: IFS Right Inner Side Shaft/CV Failure - Comments Please!
Andy, all I can say is I had a look at the operational description and ja....
Sounds like the friction and torque transfer happens when the helical gears sense a speed difference between the two wheels then get pushed against the helical gear cavity wall where the friction is created and torque transferred to the opposite drive shaft. Something like that?

Ek probeer my IFS so na as moontlik aan daai selfde capabilities kry sonder om die SAS conversion te doen.
Die ding is, ek gaan nooit met my IFS in groot kompetisie deelneem nie en gebruik hom grootliks vir overlanding, maar, ek is n "Lone Ranger" en ja dis dom om alleen kaanse te vat maar dis wat ek doen en net daarvoor wil ek ten volle capable wees om myself te kan help.
So, die mods verbeter my capability en verminder my kaanse van sleg in die moeilikheid te kom.

Re: IFS Right Inner Side Shaft/CV Failure - Comments Please!
Got my diff's sorted at Hoppy's yesterday and this is what we found.
It seems like the clip that's supposed to keep the short right hand drive shaft inside the carrier failed.
The shaft moved outwards slightly then got stripped by the side shaft gear inside the locker carrier.
The cause of this could well be a bad retaining clip together with the excessive angles in my CV's due to the amount of lift I gained after fitment of the balljoint spacers.
Hoppy had to slacken my torsion bars to drop my head with 20mm both sides , this helps a bit for the huge CV angle.
I'll do my diff drop today to compensate for the CV angles and lift my head again
4.88 Gears installed and all working fine, no, more than fine, the new ratio together with the TrueTrack locker makes an amazing change to the 4x4 capability.
Thanks Hoppy
It seems like the clip that's supposed to keep the short right hand drive shaft inside the carrier failed.
The shaft moved outwards slightly then got stripped by the side shaft gear inside the locker carrier.
The cause of this could well be a bad retaining clip together with the excessive angles in my CV's due to the amount of lift I gained after fitment of the balljoint spacers.
Hoppy had to slacken my torsion bars to drop my head with 20mm both sides , this helps a bit for the huge CV angle.
I'll do my diff drop today to compensate for the CV angles and lift my head again
4.88 Gears installed and all working fine, no, more than fine, the new ratio together with the TrueTrack locker makes an amazing change to the 4x4 capability.
Thanks Hoppy
