Volvo 240/260 Rear axle

A whine that changes tone when you give it gas, a squeal when cornering or an oil mist around the pinion seal are classic signs of a worn rear axle. On the 240/260 the version determines which parts fit – whether the car has ABS, anti-spin or a differential lock decides which diff housing and which crown wheel/pinion set belongs in the rear axle.
