Can anyone let me know what spacers/washers/shims I need to run the Yoko gear diff?, I know someone said but I can't seem to find the post now, and I forgot to write it down, really need a better gear diff now as the micro chewed on it's third outing in 10.5T, and I don't really want to go back to a ball diff. 
I run xray chubs and steering blocks most times. There are a few types of steering blvks. The ones from the t3 have the most throw

I don't think it matters which one you use, but TOP shim number is PA-101012 and I think it has 10 of each .1, .2 and .3.

Cool, by the sounds of it all the 10mm shim kits come with almost the same set of shims then, which means I'll likely be good whatever kit I buy when I get the new yoko diff.
Looking forward to the stronger gear diff, the micro one feels great till it chunks, though I'm keeping the micro up front, it holds up fine with 100k+ in it, gives me fantastic corner entry speeds.

I have said it previously, but the gear diff up front is likely working for me cause it's a track with bumpy corners, and medium to low traction, I can go harder into the corners now, a lot harder in fact, downside is maybe I loose a little drive coming out of the corner, also I noticed it will want to come out wide compared to a spool which gives more steering out of a corner (diff gives more steering into the corner).
It's a try it and see if you like it type of thing, right now I just love because it makes the car easy to drive, I like anything that makes the cars easier to drive.

10.5T with no timing, not sure about 17.5T as it may not need it (speed and power wise if your going slower it may not be noticed as much).

I did some testing with two gear diffs. and my laps time is much faster with the spool...just my 02cent
