Re: Rear diff rebuild process question
Be very careful doing that 1st step, the axle housings can easily be bent and will leak oil if they are. My method is to install the right housing with no gaskets, using 4 bolts. then with the left side up, vertically, slip the left housing on with feeler gauges supporting it, adjust clearance until proper drag is felt. Feeler gauge thickness needed is the total number of gaskets needed. Re-assemble with gaskets on both sides and adjust them for proper backlash.
