Re: Differential Gear Set Installation
The gears are done as a set. When they run them in they measure the position of the pinion in relation to the centerline of the ring gear and that measurement is scribed on the end of the gear. So you put it at that depth using the depth gage. Now the backlash is also written on the ring gear and you shim the carrier to get it correct. Last thing is to look at the pattern using a paist they make for doing this. If you buy an installation kit for the gear set it will come with it. If all went well it should look good. You may need to make small changes to get it perfect.
