Re: Custom 9" Diff Gear Spacers
Good idea! Do the shims protrude from the locker at all? It appears as though they do. If they do they are not giving you any clamping force on the ring gear to the locker allowing the ring to pull away from the locker.
There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness"

I think he made them a tad longer for the pic but I don't know. I think the dude was from Australia or something.
I guess I should have noticed it was an ARB in that 2nd pic!

I don't remember this issue in my 9". But the detroit is also 20years old.

Re: Custom 9" Diff Gear Spacers
Hmm, so let me understand. The holes in the locker are 1/2", but the holes in the ring gear are 7/16"?? That seem really odd. Are there ring gears with 1/2" holes?
