When I would rebuild the diff I would check the shim but I lost more front r/p than rear. This truck makes noise. IDK where it comes from but it is noisy.
I have the rear gritty and notchy right now, I feel good that it'll last me through the remainder of the year but I'm changing the rear diff case too just to be sure. Fortunately for me I haven't had any issues with the front r/p.
