the car is new, stock parts so the 2deg side should be 3 instead of 2.
anyway to fix this or its my systems problem? im using the integy made set.
i also found that on both diff cases there were material scratched off where the beveled gear spins closest to, even with one shim on the bearing.
this is what i did

Actually with set-up gauges, EACH side should read 1.5 degrees for a total of 3 degrees (with the kit supplied rear block).
If the Car has been run already, look for a bent hinge pin. The rear hub carriers are indentical, so you can't make a mistake there.
The rubbing marks indicates some kind of binding going on. I would inspect everything again carefully. Might be that you need an extra shim on that side to keep the gear(s) from being pushed into the case sides under power.
