I've been going through the transmission and differential of my C and replaced the differential bearings. I put it back together with the original shims and it's pretty tight. Should new roller bearings be preloaded? Is there a spec? Couldn't find much in my manual. Thanks

| | Thanks guys, I checked it with a very old spring scale and it showed somewhere around 8 pounds or so. I think I probably need to find a new one to be sure. I checked the backlash again and came up with around .012-.015. Thanks again

| Real simple method of checking preload on differential bearings like those, wrap a string around it many turns, then pull on string with a spring scale. Two to seven pounds of pull after it is rolling. The start up pull to get it moving may be considerably higher than that. Use a long string.

| | You did it right All roller bearings have to be preloaded. If the carrier was 'tight' going in, you're good. They can stand WAY more preload than 'loose'. :>) Did you end up with good backlash? Allan
