NZ Buick Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 What is out there in the way of replacement crownwheels and pinions for these early Buick diffs? I’m onto my third rear axle now trying to find something useable only to find it has a few teeth missing inside! The first two have already had there innards removed previously so I’m guessing these gears are a bit of a weak point? I’m becoming quite desperate to find some replacements now as I will never be able to get this project going without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Hughes Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 I would get in touch with Gregg Lange at glange0@charter.net He had the gears I needed to put my 1913 rear back together and I believe he also has them for the later 6 cyl cars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
