MG T-TYPE Differentials

All T-Type differentials rebuilt and ratios changed to suit your requirements

Here are some of the procedures that are required to accurately set up a TD or TF differential:

Setting up the backlash between the pinion and the crown wheel on a TD/TF axle. We use a cut away housing to accurately set the required backlash

Here you can see the bearings assembled on the 'Dummy Pinion' which is part of the tooling required to establish the correct position for the pinion. Once this dimension has been found the pinion head shim can be ground to size.

It is important to correctly set the pinion bearing preload.


We achieve this by measuring the torque required to rotate the pinion. If you are doing this yourself, ensure you check it with the oil seal removed as this will increase the measured value. We then grind the pinion bearing spacer to achieve the correct torque.


The completed TF axle painted and ready to fit back into the car. 

(We can fit and remove any of the parts we overhaul if required)


For racing we can rebuild and fit Ford or Austin differentials with limited slip if required.
