Differentials are easy to work? on, but by god that differential fluid can smell so bad!

wow, thanks a lot, this looks the same exact? thing as the Mustang, I'm doing mine tomorrow, great video

I am doing this on ...
I am doing this on a Ford 8.8 rear for my 03 f150. When you guys used the old bearings for dialing in the contact did you use the old crush sleeve and just snug up the pinion bolt until? there is no wobble in the pinion?

@ ...
@Mostertruckbuilder? AGREED!!!

Are the bearings ...
Are the bearings on? the diff pressed on as well or are they interference fit? I just want to change my diff without changing the gear ratio

On my 05 the driver ...
On my 05 the driver side? spider gear is chewed up....do i need to replace the whole diff or can i just replace the gear?

Just a thought for ...
Just a thought for taking the old bearing off you could heat it up with a torch enough so that it expands and falls off the old pinion? not sure just my 2 cents. Great video by the way im just about to install gears now I feel better haha.

There's? a lot more ...
There's? a lot more to this then talked about, no comment about pinion preload, backlash, how hard it is to compress the crush sleeve, shim pack, when you go over 456 gears your center pin no longer fits and you need a lot of tools.
