Quick Q about 8-3/4 axle end play adjustment.. - 06/10/20 11:28 PM
Guys,
Replacing bearings on a stock open diff 8-3/4 rear axle, the FSM says to adjust all bearing end-play on the passenger side, cuz there is no adjuster on the driver's side...
So if you tighten the end-play adjuster on the passenger side down until you have no end play on the passenger side - but STILL have end play on the driver's side - do I recall correctly that we have to add shims or something on the driver's side? Or what do you do to tighten the end play on the drivers' side when you have nothing left to adjust with on the passengers side?
Thanks,
