Hi all,
Rather then starting multiple threads I thought I'd start one thread and dump my questions in it.
I'm just about to attempt to install an new wheel stud, thanks for everyone's help on that, I'll update that thread and this once I've got it in.
Here are another question. The slack in between turning the input flange (drive shaft connection) on the carrier and the ring gear moving, I've known it as pre-load but I'm probably wrong? How much slack should there be? And how do I measure it?
I feel like there is too much but I'm hoping to avoid getting it rebuilt. If it does need to be adjusted, is it easy for some one with little diff experience to adjust? I'm good at swinging a ratchet but have never dealt with the actual diff before.
Looks like my ring gear is stamped with a 4.1, from memory you can count the teeth to confirm. What number of teeth would be 4.1 or is there a list I could find some where?
Next question, stoked as to find I have an LSD diff but it doesn't seam to be a stock unit. Can someone help I identify it?
Thanks all!
