: 1. Is the pinion adjustment done with shims? It's not obvious how to do this from the picture?
: 2. For the ring gear, why do you need 2 people and a screwdriver? Can't I remove the whole assembly, replace the gear on the bench, and put it back? : Thanks for the help...BTW, can you tell me roughly what it would cost to get a used differential assembly, US$? I'm guessing $300-$400. : Kurt
