OK so this might be a very basic question,but I have not done work on my 8.75 in 15 years. I can't find a direct answer to my question here or on the internet.
I did the green bearing "thing" years ago, not going to change that.
I pulled my 4.10/detroit locker 3rd member setup and put back in 3.55/sure-grip 3rd member. When I took out the axles I had to use a "persuader" to get them to come out, like something was holding them in a little bit. Now when I'm trying to put the axles back in I get a springy feel when I try to push them in the very last bit. It is like the last 3/16-1/4" has some resistance, but if I tighten down the 5 nuts it will pull the axle in. If I loosen the 5 nuts it will move back out the original distance.
HELP! I'm I missing something. I don't want to mess anything up.
Thanks, Mark
