In Russia, you don't service the car until something ejects... Then you just replace the parts that are essential for going forward... Everything is so cheap, because people wreck their cars so often that junk yards are full of usable spare parts.
First the spir gears and the shaft that they ride on heated up. This cause the shaft to expand and lock to the spir gears. Once the spir gears were locked to the shaft, they started spinning the shaft like a smooth version a router bit. The spinning shaft then started grinding away the steel from the diff case ( which is what caused all of that play ). You can see @11:28 that the tip of that spinning shaft gets so hot from friction that it glows bright orange.
Sometimes it's people trying to race... Get the RPM high and then drop it in gear. Metal hates hard fast hits. The more you do it, the bigger the play becomes that leads to harder hits.
Just don't do diff oil changes is enough, condensation brings water mixed with steel shrapnel's and honey like dried up old oil will burn any gearbox fast
I feel like that clear case and the chill from the weather/snow has helped it extend its life compared to 32.2°C here in Central Wisconsin with 100% humidity I don't forsee it running as long as in this scenario. However this was a interesting demonstration.
9:57 Normally (when the right and left wheel spin at the same speed) those gears don't spin. They are just not designed to be used very much. Only when you go around a corner or so.
Really cool guys. There's so much to be learned from your vids. Some folks see it as all laughs and silliness, but I leave each video having learned something usually.
Even a open diff can spin both tires for a short bit at least. Those spider gears put so much pressure on the side gears it’s easier to turn the axle than spin the spider gears. Usually only banging gears or a quick shock load. This can also cause catastrophic failure
Bought a '98 Toyota Hiace four years ago that seemed to have a minor oil leak from the diff. No drops on the ground, but could smell it after driving. Didn't care much about it until on a long summer holiday trip, after lots of rocking to get unstuck from a mud hole. Heard whining from the rear end when driving afterwards. Hit up the nearest Toyota workshop, they added 1.1 L of diff oil. (Total capacity is 1.8 L) Less whining on the trip home, but noticeable through tunnels. Had the diff checked at the local workshop after coming home; the pinion bearing was bad. A car-savvy friend of mine replaced the diff with a second-hand unit, and it's been fine since. However, after watching this video, I feel bad for torturing the old oil-starved diff when trying to get out of that mud hole. Gotta check the oil level soon :-)
I had a diff where that pin came loose ( bolt holding it broke) and it moved back and forth hitting the pinion gear and that caused the bolt holding it to loosen! Pin was bent so I couldn't remove to fix/rebuild. So I welded it in place and tightened everything fresh fluids and that was 4 months ago. No issues yet! Bought a new one (entire axel assembly) still haven't had to put it in!!
0:20 - I've always considered this fact (about the free-to-spin wheel doubling in speed) a _kind of_ traction control, in and of itself. We all know that doubling the speed via gearing will give us twice the speed, but at half the torque. So in essence, when a wheel begins to lose traction and spin faster than the other, its torque is reduced by 50% - Now it's less likely to spin...
No, the torque is equal at both wheels. If one wheel loses contact, then no torque will be delivered to the other. That's why braking the freely spinning wheel (eg. traction control) allows the contact wheel to generate torque.
Maniacs!😜 What "spider gears" don't like is shock loads. Wait until spring. Remove both shocks/dampers from the rear end. Then try to do burnouts on the dry pavement. You may even get a bonus, and break the U-joints on the driveshaft.
Seeing that makes me glad that I chose to leave the car I got until I actually looked it over properly. Welded the "blue" slipping gears to each other with electricity. Filled it back up using old engine oil mixed with 3 tubes of grease. Ford Independent Rear Suspension 8.8 differential, took 185hp for 360'000km... only one oil change. Works just fine, gets around better then some trucks do. I have tire chains for it, they are amazing. Works so good that thinking of getting a job to buy a new one off a dealership, forget that... to much work.
Guys, the job you do with translating is great - it's just that sometimes I think a translator with proper russian accent would make it even greater xD

It's probably too much to ask, but a little text box that converts metric units into the budweisers per bald eagle system showing up when any measurements are shown would be a great help for us across the waters. I have no idea how warm or cold centigrade measurements are.
Doing a long 1 wheel burnout will do the same thing. It puts an incredible amount of stress on the spider gears and their shafts. Some diffs can take it for more than others, but it's harsh. Seen a few blow up like that, luckily not my cars!
I have a Land Cruiser 100 Series. Last year water leaked into my rear diff and it started to whine and vibrate, today 1 year after that it still hasn’t died. But it whines terribly of course.
When offroading, one of the wheels can lift up, resulting in twice the speed in the oposite one. When you give it gas to move forward, the wheel speeds up and when it hits the rock/hard surfice and stops immediately this is when damage happens. Really wanted to see how one of the wheels spins up like you did with lifting it, then start moving forward in first gear to about 10-20 km and drop the car to the ground on a hard surface, not snow. That would be really interesting to see.
Ya, most of that damage happens when someone is stubbornly pinning the gas and they are bouncing up and down on a rock, but not going anywhere. Often they are at full lock for good measure too. Poor cv never had a chance.
Years back I had a little Mazda pickup I had mismatched tires on. The rear end was making a little noise, but then got louder and made a hell of a bang with a constant clunking. It had broken off the cross pin bolt, the cross pin had tried to leave it's position, but had hit the pinion so hard it broke one if the carrier caps. It was a mess.
ur diff pin got loose because normally that pin doesnt spin, it does a little bit when u go around turns n stuff but 99% of the time its stationary, the situation u created was very unique, because it was only that one wheel spinning the spider gears pin was also spinning steady eating away at the side it was turning against
From my experience with GM is bending the thrush washers around the spider gears and loading the diff which locks the spiders and hello posi! But eventually the cross pin holding the spider gears break and will blow everything apart sending debris though the cover and lose a axle in process. Which also fucks up the ring n pinion as well.
I was tight because the diff oil lubric’s the half shaft bearings if it not level the half shaft bearings will run dry and tighten up. Citroen have diff issues when oil level gets low in gearbox diff throws oil up in to gearbox staving itself of oil and it destroys itself on motorway, normally the roll pin lets go that holds diff together allowing it to grenade diff and gearbox normally destroying the clutch too.
Do another dry differential video, but load the drivetrain by doing it on a wheel dyno. I once had a Toyota Hilux that had leaked out all its diff fluid without me noticing. I was driving on the freeway when it gave out. No grinding or crunching or anything: it was like it just slipped into neutral. I thought that was odd, and when I took the pumpkin out, I discovered why there hadn't been any crunching. The ring and pinion had gotten so hot that the pinion just melted into a blob! The ring gear teeth had melted away to about half the size each tooth was supposed to be. And a ring of metal had built up around the housing from the molten gear-tooth metal being flung off. I bet it would have been reallllllly cool to see that happening! Molten metal flying around in the case at high speed, sparks, destruction! That's not to say these trucks have unreliable differentials though. Quite the opposite. That truck had 479,000 miles on it when that happened. The differential fluid had NEVER been checked. These trucks were so reliable, its easy to forget that they need any maintenance at all; they just keep going... until something like this happens!
i boke mine it was a dana 70 from a 1993 dodge w250 i had no oil in there for god knows how long since then i have fixed it with a brand new diff and axel, got very lucky to find one the very next day (victoria bc canada ) huge fan !
Hi, with those thermometers you need to put them really close to have proper readout, their measuring cone is very wide, that far from diff you measured average of diff and lot of environment temps.
Parts detonation in an axle usually happens when both wheels are spinning and then one wheel stops suddenly and one keeps spinning and bang, done it a couple of times playing off-road either in the mud or snow ones in a Land-Rover once in a Willys CJ3.
The Spider gears inside the housing are not meant to spin at that speed. They are only used for turning and going around corners. They don't spin at high speeds. To see how long a differential will last without oil, spin both wheels at the same time as if driving normal then you will see how long a differential will last without oil.
Should bung up the air pressure blow hole on the axle... causes the half shafts to lose their seals and can blow them out the tubes. Used to do it to ppl we didn't like using some gun gum and a jubilee clip... few miles later kersproing
I wonder if the diff would explode if you were to load the trunk with a lot of weight and get it up to top speed while the rear end was suspended in the air and than let it drop to dry ground
@@dickJohnsonpeter Yes, serious as a heart attack. A heavy right foot and big tires on a truck will roast the spider gears onto that center shaft and make things come apart in ways they weren't intended to.
If stopping one wheel makes the other rotate twice as fast does that mean that in theory you could block the diff on one side while still allowing that wheel to spin (essentially making a one-wheel drive car) and double the top speed of the car? I think that would be an interesting experiment by itself.
I had an axle seal fail and I ran a Ford limited slip differential for 7 months of hard driving. Didn’t do as much damage as most people would’ve thought.
Had a guy I worked with as a contractor for the Army. He forgot to refill the rear diff on a humvee during services. It lasted about 5 miles before locking up
With no lubricant, it will not last very long. Metal on metal. Not good. Most folks never change the diff lube. Overtime condensation adds water to the lubricant n causes rust n breakdown of the lubricant's viscosity. By the time you notice funny noises, damage has occurred. To be safe, it should be changed every five years or so. The cost of lube is waay cheaper than the cost of a new differential. But then again, I regress. To most people, automobiles are disposable ... 😳
4x4 jeep cherokee lasted years bearings go out first like 8 bearings, they brake after the lock up of the a xles and yokes bearings may still go on front wheels until wheel or axle bearing locks up but then they can brake n still go at a lower speed with alot of noise,
I think this has brought a whole series of videos into one single point: Which fails first when we remove all fluids (except engine oil...maybe just let it run low to be fair) from the car? Get rid of the tranny fluid, coolant and diff fluid and start it up and go fill bore until it blows.

@@dickJohnsonpeter Yes, serious as a heart attack. A heavy right foot and big tires on a truck will roast the spider gears onto that center shaft and make things come apart in ways they weren't intended to.
To always have a dozen or so old Ladas around to tear up, priceless.
First time I've seen glowing differential gears.
I drove an old Land Cruiser for years with no oil in the rear dif. It was a tank.
I like this channel no nasty cheap SFX or gimmicks.
If stopping one wheel makes the other rotate twice as fast does that mean that in theory you could block the diff on one side while still allowing that wheel to spin (essentially making a one-wheel drive car) and double the top speed of the car? I think that would be an interesting experiment by itself.
two hours later and she's not dead yet🤣
Gear ratios and engine power will be the limit
This channel should be so much bigger
I'm glad I changed my rear diff fluid when I did it was making a noise when I turn after it got warmed up runs fine no noise now
It needs a Banks Diff cover!!!!!!
I had an axle seal fail and I ran a Ford limited slip differential for 7 months of hard driving. Didn’t do as much damage as most people would’ve thought.
"We've got a Lada snow.." 🤣
A similar thing happened to the front diff on my '93 Grand Cherokee, after an oil seal burst.
Had a guy I worked with as a contractor for the Army. He forgot to refill the rear diff on a humvee during services. It lasted about 5 miles before locking up
With no lubricant, it will not last very long.
Metal on metal. Not good. Most folks never change the diff lube. Overtime condensation adds water to the lubricant n causes rust n breakdown of the lubricant's viscosity. By the time you notice funny noises, damage has occurred. To be safe, it should be changed every five years or so. The cost of lube is waay cheaper than the cost of a new differential.
But then again, I regress. To most people, automobiles are disposable ... 😳
4x4 jeep cherokee lasted years bearings go out first like 8 bearings, they brake after the lock up of the a
xles and yokes bearings may still go on front wheels until wheel or axle bearing locks up but then they can brake n still go at a lower speed with alot of noise,
I think this has brought a whole series of videos into one single point: Which fails first when we remove all fluids (except engine oil...maybe just let it run low to be fair) from the car? Get rid of the tranny fluid, coolant and diff fluid and start it up and go fill bore until it blows.
It's amazing how long they will last with no oil... It's also equally amazing how fast they come to a stop when they are toast.
