The diff balls ill be using are bulk ordered ceramics from ebay they claim to be grade 5, anyone have any opinoins on these? I know they arnt grade 3 but couldnt justify the price of the grade3 i found
A smooth diff is one of the most important factors in a car's handling. I'm not sure how many vehicles you're outfitting here, but good ceramics aren't too expensive in the long run. They last forever.
Castellano has a good diff build video. It's basically how I do it, especially with the break in procedure he does. Takes a while to get the diff setting right, but then you're good to go. The diff may then loosen a bit after the first run, so it should again be checked, especially if you're using brand new rings.
