The docs are a little sparse when it comes to the front diff (unless I complete missing something):

1. Is the long half supposed to be on the left or right side?
2. Has anyone else had a problem with a wobble - if so, did you manage to fix it and how?

The prob with the wobble is that your trust bearing is broken or isn't completely straight in the outdrive! thats the most important thign about an RDX diff!

Goodluck!

I need some help finding the washers that go with the screws for the hinge pin blocks... my manual shows part no. 1235 and that doesn't seem to be a good number at Corallyusa or stormers... I need to pick up some spares since I lost one after not using loctite to secure that screw... I also need to be able to mail order since there is no local support for the car. Thanks

You can use these type washers. Thats what I did and I have had no problmes. I technically used the crc purple ones, but that was just to match another color on my car. You can also add them above the steering posts for some color. I also used matching nylon lock nuts to attach the shocks to the tower. Bling it on my friend.

Hi guys just got my next top brace and was wondering if anyone had trouble with the front belt rubbing on the screw on the bottom of the bell crank ? I put mine on and it seems to be rubbing is this a problem or have I put it on wrong?? Thanks

looking down at the diff screw on a built diff it looks like the screw doesnt stay central in the diff half. They move up and around as you rotate the diff, I'd of expected it to stay bang in the centre, is this what happens or is there something wrong

COR1235 is an active number... it's listed as cone washers on their site under the parts list for the RDX. You can actually order right from Corally USA with that number and get what you are looking for ... or if you are local to the GTA, try FastCats - they can order from Corally USA for you.
