sometimes the molds on the gears and cases can be different. The way to work the diffs is to shim them so the ring and pinion are tight to eachother. This may be a different number of shims compared to the manual. You still want it to rotate easily but you dont want any slop in there. After a run or two things will wear in and you will be set! If the manual settings have your setup a touch on the loose side and then the wear in creates more slop it will be nothing but stripped gears
