Common jobs for Balclutha drivers
This is farm ute country through and through. Hilux, Ranger, Colorado and D-Max rear diffs that have towed stock and feed across wet paddocks, with Land Cruiser units from the bigger properties and the Catlins gravel. Spider gear and carrier wear from low speed towing is the typical finding when the old units come back. Local workshops can fit the unit the day after it arrives.
Any mechanic in Balclutha can fit an exchange diff head. The unit arrives with fitting notes, the ratio tagged on the housing and the oil specification, and the team in Christchurch is on the phone to your workshop if anything about the model needs checking. For a repair to your own unit rather than an exchange, the diff travels to Christchurch on the courier and back, freight free, while the vehicle stays with your local workshop.
Ordering from Balclutha
I am on a rural address outside Balclutha. Does that change anything?
Rural delivery usually adds a working day each way, and the courier needs a clear pickup point for the old unit on the way back. Tell the team the address is rural when you order and the freight is booked to suit.
Can my local mechanic in Balclutha fit it?
Yes. Any workshop can fit an exchange head. Fitting notes come with the unit and the team will talk to your mechanic directly if anything about the model is unusual.
