Front diff preload / pinion backlash adjustment?
Posted: Mon Apr 18, 2011 6:18 pm
Hey guys
New front diff is in and gearbox reassembled (hopefully for the last time!) and just wanted to ask...
How do I know if the backlash between the pinion gear and the crown wheel is adjusted properly? Is it a matter of moving the bearing retainers in/out until there is no play left?
Cheers,
Owen.
