Default RE: NT-16 Engine

hello once again ,can u give me some advice, i had abig crash with a herb the other day which caused the truck to flip 11,12 times ,it landed on the wheels and drove off perfect.
later on that day i noticed mt pinion spurs [ next to flywheel] were loose , also there seemed to be alittle bit off play around ----------behind the flywheel wnd between the eingine case around the spacer [thing located behind flywheel] i noticed a bit off fuel coming from here so i tightend up everthing and drove it ,and nothing came out anymore out but my diff does not appear to be working right very stiff more than normal and very grindy sounding ,opened it up but can not see much wrong[there is grease in there] could this be the cause of my pinion teeth loosing , iknow there is aone way bearing in there and that system is not working right .how i noticed this was ,when driving the diff would,nt work on gravel or tar .........on gravel when slowing down and turning it doesaloow one wheel to travel faster than the other .hence it skids out the hole time while turning .are the parts [diff,main shaft with spur in the end expensive].
could u think of anything else to check or any advice
thanks very much
