    Hey guys,
    Can I clean the diff centre unit(spider gear, clutch plate assembly) with degreaser and flush out any gunk?

    Few more photos.
    Soon after dismantling and cleaning the diff centre assembly off the diff centre housing.
    It only took couple of not so hard hits with a rubber mallet(on the top rod end of the pinion gear) to get the pinion gear off the
    pinion bearing.

    These three pictures show the carrier bearing preload adjusting shims & their locking retainer mechanism.
    These pictures were taken before I removed the pinion gear off the diff centre housing. This is a late post of these pictures.

    I've just went through it and this is a fairly good documentation of a dissection;-) In my opinion those bearings were no good. How did You end up with this project? Did You fix it or have You changed the whole thing?

    Sorry, mate. Dom has been gone for a very long time, so don't expect an answer.
