That is because the unit was designed to wear together. Once the cones wear into the housing it is hard to replace just a cone because of the differences in wear patterns unit to unit. Hope we do not have a issue with these units, but I do suspect there is going to be problems. I think different thickness shims and new clutch washers will also need to be supplied. There is no other way to adjust torque bias. I believe once a new cone is installed the torque bias would need to be checked often and adjusted with shims/washers until the new cone has wore in properly to the housing. Don't get me wrong this is better than nothing, but I believe we will have to play around with it some to get it right. Hope they are willing to help us out till the end.fulsizjeep wrote: I was not 100% aware of this until some research was done, but the individual internals for the differential were not offered over the counter. There was one p/n for the whole assembly.
I think that the thrust washers will need to be supplied with different thicknesses so that the torque bias can be adjusted.fulsizjeep wrote:I asked about new cone and thrust washers for the differential last week. An encouraging reply...
Hi Flint,
We tore down a Quadratrac and retrieve the washers so we have a full set. We are looking into producing them now. I just wanted to keep you in the loop. Have a great weekend.

For clarification, the service kit is an AMJ-73. This is the BK1305 bearing kit.jsinajeep wrote:Are you talking about the Tool Kit that Flint got from me.

Not much interested in selling it unless they definitely will make more parts that are now unobtainable. I'd like all new parts to rebuild one of my spare cases as a backup spare.
As it stands right now the low range shaft may be the only item I don't have a NOS replacement for. I just added 3 more qts of liquid gold to my collection last week.
Someone should reproduce the rebuild tool kit for these things. I keep hearing of a couple floating around but no pics of them yet.
