Thread: Diff set up

I've just got a stock 10 spline in the rear at the moment, I've gotta be ready to go to Sydney, so will set the rear up next week, I'll think about doing a decent write up on that, as I need to set the pinion height on that one, as when Mal made the early maxi drives, he fly cut one of the carrier bearing bits bores, below thread line, so that particular housing must be retained, its a bit more of an extensive job to set the pinion

what was the reason for change over from 4.11's back to 3.54 , aren't you running much bigger tyres ? just curious ? that's all.

4BD1 and LT95, no overdrive makes for crappy road speed with the oiler, loves the 3.54:1 and 35's

pm on its way

Where do you buy those special torque pens so you know everything is stays tight?

its just a paint pen you buy from the local newsagents, the idea being that once you torque the fastener, you put a dab of paint on it so you know its been done

also, you put a mark on the side of the fastener so it extends onto what the fastener sits against, and that will give you a visual indication of wether it has moved in use
