Associated should chamfer their pins more severely to help guide them into the outdrive holes. It could be done in a way that wouldn't effect the purchase of the gear on the pin. I'm surprised to see AE using metal gears in the kit. I have an XRay that came with plastic gears and they're really durable.
Xrays are top notch! The problem is the ring gear is 5 one thousandths to thick. Or the need to ship with a thinner shim. Once the pin is in, the outdrive is noticeably tighter than the diff cup side. I’m going to rebuild with a .1 or a .1 & .05 stacked. Thanks for watching and for reaching out.
I like to use a scribe to mark my diffs. Then a silver sharpie on top. Anyway nice video
Thanks! A scribe is a more permanent option.
Dont worry. you'll find the pin exactly one minute after you finish the build with the new pin.
Ha, you haven’t seen my work room… they’ll find Waldo before they find the pins.
