Installing the Differental Gears Pre/Load?B-1 PW48

Posted by Willy-N on Monday, December 09, 2002 at 9:25PM :

When you install the gears in the differental what is the pre/load on the side bearings? Is it to the point of zero play after centering on the pinion? Also on the pinion what is the pre/load in the pinion bearings? I am talking about the nut on the Yoke is it zero play also? After all the bearings are adjusted what is the maxium play on the Ring and pinion gears. I have the front differental all together now out side of the Housing and wanted to adjust it right. It will be a week befor I get my manuals if not more. Sure wish I could see a picture of the pinion set up including the seal. Thanks, Mark H.
