This made a massive difference for me. The 1st time I built the diff I didn't do this, it became notchy quickly and I had to do it up tight to stop it slipping.

The next time this was the only thing I did differently and it transformed the diff action and longevity.

When new the rings have a kind of mottled finish which stops the balls from gripping them properly, when you lap them in with wet and dry you can watch it disappear!
