Dumb Question Thread - No Flaming Allowed

I have only seen this DIY'd while the diff is in the car. Maybe if the diff is mounted to the subframe while it is on the ground, but my guess is probably not.

Yes, assuming you don’t need to crush the pinion sleeve. Once it is crushed the torque to put the nut back on is not huge. Just make sure you mark it well so you can go back to the right settings.

when I did my diff I actually did this. I installed the diff with the drive shaft flange off and it was much easier to install, once bolted I used a large breaker bar to drive the nut back to the mark. You have to do this anyway as you preload the bearings without the seal.

Ok then, I'll take slideways idea and leave it attached to the subframe and give it a go. I really don't want to do it from under the car on quick jacks.

if you only need a single, you can, but I'd have the serial of the other for reference.

I’d need a single of both the front and the rear… who can I reach out to? MCS directly?
