Mahindra 4x4s, at least the 3215 are famous for destroying the front pinion gear and shaft. Is there an aftermarket source for higher quality for this part? Or a place that could heat treat an OEM one to make it harder?Im. I've got to replace mine and don't want to have to do it again a few hundred hours down the road.
Weak pinion gears and shaft

You have the Roxor ? That's what I'm speaking about ... Several years ago I got a piece of wire wrapped around the shaft and tore up my pinion seal. My machine was in limbo for weeks as I was told the warehouse had burned down. I waited and waited and waited for a seal from Mahindra on backorder. I finally found a jeep seal that fit, but the dealer wouldn't tell me that. It's been so long ago that I can't remember the #. POSSIBLY could be this one but just not sure so you would need to check before using it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HHG8UAM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
edit.. It's been years since I did this job but remember being very cautious about the tightening of the seal- I believe I remember something about counting the threads as I tightened up everything so the pressure would be the same as the wire damaged seal I took off.

edit #2 I'm sorry I misread your post. I thought you were needing a quality pinion seal.
