Re: Morning! Having trouble seating my pinion shaft in rear diff...

Im guessing its a locking diff? if it is the thrust block is probably not aligned with the C-clip. heres some info i have.


Important: When removing the axle shaft, do not rotate the shaft. Rotating the shaft will misalign the gears. Misaligning the gears will make the assembly difficult.

On axles with a locking differential, place the lock (1) on the axle shaft (3) so that the ends are flush with the thrust block (2).
Pull the shaft flange outward in order to seat the lock in the differential gear
