Building the diffs...

[colt_seavers]

Does anyone have any tips on how to get the main gears onto the hexagonal input shafts? I have managed to get one on (and no idea how I did it), and that has taken the past hour. I don't know what to do next. I am not forcing it, so maybe I am not pushing it hard enough. Frustration is starting to set in now!

Usually people use something like a socket etc and tap it down

they are a tight fit from new but will tap down - just make sure it goes down equally all round

Thanks for the reply. The only thing is in the review on this site, Jimmy says that forcing them on just makes it harder. I don't want to mangle anything up.

Yeh i read that too

however they just wont go on without a tap as they are an "inerferance fit"

as long as they god down evenly they will be fine

try durango web site there is a build guide on there i think

also pretty sure similar questions have been asked on here in the durango forum - go to it and search diffs should bring it up

Durnango web site does reccomment greasing the hex shaft

bang them on with a wooden dowel and hammer...but not over tight
