8 3/4 Rearend Overhaul
Return to the album thumbnailsBack




There it is installed and ready for oil and a road test. Remember, if you have a posi unit, it will require the additive along with the differential oil.
All 8 3/4 rearends are the same except for the type of posi unit it has and how the pinion bearing preload is set. If you have a rearend that has the crush sleeve to set pinion bearing preload, don't install it until the final assembly. They can only be used once and should be changed every time the rearend is disassembled. They are VERY hard to get to crush down to set the preload. That is what the yoke holding tool is best for. Also, tight them very slowly and check pinion turning torque often. They shouldn't be loosened to get the proper torque, if over tightened. You are supposed tostart over with a new crush sleeve.
GOOD LUCK, and feel free to e-mail me with questions.
