We stripped the rear axle ,cleaned the case to bare metal and painted it in 2 pack epoxy black along with the chassis and all other suspension components. I prefer not to blast axle casings as I am never sure you can remove all of the grit afterwards.
Spencer Lane-Jones workshops rebuilt the differential for me with new bearings and a new oversize pin which the planet gears run on as this had worn along with the centre of the gears and had also bent.
I made new gaskets and fitted the diff in the axle, rebuilding the halfshafts with new bearings and seals and assembled the axle and rear brakes which were refurbished in the same manor as the fronts.
