Leaking diff so time for a re-build
Upon inspection i find the xrings are totally shot..
I noticed that there is some lateral movement if you wiggle the outdrive within the main diff gear.
So my question is do people shim between the outdrive (cup end) and the main diff gear?
I have read to make sure you "tap" the smaller gear onto the outdrive fully - which i did - of course how far it can go on is limited by the e-clip behind it.
The only other way of "tightening" the washer against the xring is to shim on the other (cup) side as described.
Just thought id ask what you guys do
thanks
