i built my lazer diffs with WBD-5 last night and i find that the 8x14 bearings have to much gap between the aluminium spacer. this will not only cause the diff to move side to side a lot, but will also allow dirt to get into the rear gearbox. How do i get the correct shims to fix this problem? this is avery serious problem. if i cant fix this i can forget about my lazer or i have to back to WBD-1.
I remember when I used 3mm balls to build the ball diff that the pulley wiggles a bit. I ended up using 1/8" balls and it was much more rigid.

To solve the shimming issue, you will need to get some 8 x 14 shims. Luckily I got some at my desposal I was able to shim it properly. I rebuilded the rear gear box a few time to get it to be shimmed correctly. It's all trial and error for me.
