It should be a new unit and they should not have used a rebuilt differential. I would not have accepted that. I'm buying new so I want new.
I'm not sure I can agree with that statement. "New" just means that it came from an assembly line where hundreds of other units were assembled from scratch and never tested. "Rebuilt" means that someone with mechanical expertise paid special attention to making sure that your otherwise "New" unit was working properly, including the replacement of any substandard existing parts with new parts. I think that having the individual attention of a qualified mechanic paid to the differential would tend to make me trust it far more than the random dice roll of "New". As anyone who has ever bought a "New" TT or MH knows, "New" units often have a myriad of problems built right in at the factory.
