finally! stripped 2 crowns already and at £12 each its expensive
for a company that charges prices like these for spares, this support and tips should come without asking. |

Durango spares are cheap compared to Schumacher!
I'm been running the car for 3 months now and haven't broken a single item or stripped any gears. i guess it's all in the build |

I thought that until I priced up front shock towers :gulp: !
Good guide though -that should be in the manual and are there enough shims provided in the kit?

Same as me, still going to do the guide on my diff and see how it feels.

They missed out telling people to add tape where the bearings sit in the gearbox halves. Good guide though especially for setting the gap between the pinion bearings.
This stuff is simply common sense though. |

Tape? Not sure ive heard of this one?

Cracking guide ... Exactly what I needed, as I need to rebuild my 410 to get familiar (bought 'nearly new' built & 2nd hand).
Jimmy - if you're reading, I presume this is the guide you mentioned to me on Sunday @ Chadderton?

Tape - he's talking about ptfe tape to sandwich the bearings. Clamp it like the guide isn't as dirty looking and i can see why they wouldn't want to tell people to do that.
Aye andy thats the one. Hope you enjoy the new car mate

I found that even when you pinch the pinnion gear and input shaft together so that there was no slop as per the guide in my eyes the vertical play was excessive once rebuilt. When you use electricians tape it doesn't pinch the bearings when you reassemble the gearbox, the tape gets squashed when the bearings press on to it. No slop and it's alot quieter no bull*hit . If people don't believe it's not needed see me at the last round of Worksop and I'll prove it. Mine has no vertical movement on the centre CVD's. |

Neither does mine Build it like the guide and you don't need tape and it's rock solid with no vertical movement.
If tape works for you though of course then it's a good solution - I'm just saying you can build it with the guide and it's fine too.

Did mine according to guide. Had no article movement. After 30 minutes running on Sunday though they are both moving a lot. Rebuild time me thinks

Drill the diff bolt holes out to 3mm. Nut and bolt the cases together clamps the bearings much tighter than relying on the plastic threads.

Add proper diff shimming/assembly, and slipper adjustment, and I haven't broken a single ring gear, since.
