I assume the 7 bolt is definitely not usable on a 2004. Any advice appreciated. Have not removed unit yet so don’t know if my gear is damaged but don’t want to wait around if I find it is.

In 9 out of 10 cases your angle gear is ok and it will need a sleeve ..depends how long you have been running it with the splines grinding together though .
