Hey everyone, thanks for all the input on my diff rebuilding post. Here's what I did. Just so everyone knows, because I read it in a few posts, is that you need to replace the entire diff case, due to possible warping, which I have done. I also replaced the old shims with new shims, and of course the worn ring and pinion gears. I went by the book stock shim setup, which was (3) .10 mm shims on the right, and (1) .25mm and (2) .10 mm shims on left. I reassembled everything, and all seems ok. There is some notchiness in turning the two out drives in the same direction, but notchiness stops after a couple revolutions. Then stop turning, and start again, and notchiness is there again for a revolution or two. So there is definately some notchiness. It the diff was kinda hard to get in the case, I chalked this up to the correct shimming. What do you guys think from what I have told you here? Thanks again, everyone.
