I've traditionally done the diff screw head on the left side (driver's side), but have since switched to the Right side (passenger side) regardless of transmission type (3 gear RM vs 3 gear MM and 4 gear MM). Kdub (Kurt Wenger, former AE designer) had this to say on the matter: I think I count as an authority on the matter. I always run my diff screw on the right side (when sitting "inside" the car). I take off the tire and pull the outer hinge pin to get to the adjustment screw.
The right rear is the way the AE manuals state (or used to state). It really shouldn't matter since you go around turns both left and right.

B5M: 3inx2.06in=3inx52.324mm
B6: 3inx48mm
One would probably work on the other in a pinch, but for reference, they are of different lengths.

Anyone in Socal going with the B6 for SDRC and OCRC? I kind of like the thought of the gear diff after running onroad for a bit. Seems like for 17.5 it would be a benefit anyway but then again i have never run them of road in anything but 4wd.

Gear diffs and 17.5 do not mix. Those things are HEAVY.
Wenger right now is KILLING it in 17.5 with the D car at OCRC.
