Re: posi rear end question for you guys

If you remove it from one housing and put it into another housing, you have to do all the setup work to get the pre load and backlash set correctly, otherwise your gears are not going to last long.

Typically the only time you don't have to resetup the rear end is if you remove and put back ALL the exact same parts. Change anything in the diff part (like bearing, gears) you have to set everything up again.
