I know the housing does not like to be tightened too much, just enough to close the gap
Ball or gear diff? The gear diff requires no shims. check the teeth of all the gears for debris, gently run a scapel blade in the deep recess, there my be some grit you can't see.
I doubt the gears are oval or the shafts are bent as this would cause more serious issues not just a little binding, the force required to bend those shafts would ruin the whole gearbox/car lol
One last thing, when I replaced the ball diff for a new gear diff there was a very small bind on about a tenth of a rotation but a few packs in it was gone so if you have any new parts in there give them chance to bed in.  |
Cheers for the help, will check gaps tomorrow. I am using a gear diff, which shims do you mean? the ones on the idlers?
