with pinion and bearing.. instead of press you could freeze the pinion and heat the bearing to fit. im getting ready to do mine and looking to find the cheapest ways to get parts done. great job btw!
Yes I’ve tried that before but always have issues with it not getting all the way seated before the bearing contracts again. It is an option though! Honestly looking back at this job (on my own rig) I have learned a lot of what NOT to do lol So I mean I found better ways to do gear jobs since I posted this video. I’ll have new videos coming out soon if the same axles but how I do it now. Anyway you can find a used press on FB or Craigslist for less than $100 and trust me, mine paid for itself time and time again
Could you put shims behind the inner pinion bearing to set the depth? I've seen people say that's how the Ford differentials are "supposed to be" setup. the claim is it's easier to knock out a race than remove/reinstall bearings. Awesome video. Glad you point out "don't do it this way"
I suppose you could although I’m not familiar with that practice. I haven’t looked into it very hard though. Also I feel removing the bearings is pretty quick and easy with the clamshell tool but that depends on your setup too Thanks for the input! I’m glad you enjoyed. It was really my true first gear set up so I learned a lot and now realize I did a lot of things sloppy or not the best ways, but that’s how you learn. It’s still holding up anyway so 🤷🏻♂️
Hey good question. I priced them out around $300 and figured I’d rather put that toward a locker instead. The limited slip worked pretty well all this time but I agree it would have been a good time to do it
TheDangerzone The new ratio is 5.13, and yes you have to use 10.25 pinion bearings for this ratio because there are no 10.5 gears that “deep” that work. 10.25 bearings bump the pinion out a tad for correct alignment
Jerry Llanos 😂 I agree. Like I said, I am all ears and open to learning. I’d rather do things properly. It just isn’t helpful to say what is wrong without a suggestion or explanation
@@4link4wdlol its all good we are all here learning, otherwise there would be no reason to watch these videos. I thought it was a great video. I will say though that ring gear probably should have been torqued in a star pattern. That might have been what he meant by torqued incorrectly.

Grind the crimp off yhe old pinion nut makes it much easier on u and the threads save the new one for final install
Wow that is such a simple idea but so helpful. Thank you! I will definitely do that next time 👊🏼
air hammer knocks the pinion out easy
mikeyjock man...I guess it’s the simple things sometimes that get overlooked. Thank you! Will do next time
An as we see that he did actually not use one.
Does anyone own the correct tools to do the dabs anymore is amazing
why did you not replace the clutch packs they are cheep and you are in their all ready
Hey good question. I priced them out around $300 and figured I’d rather put that toward a locker instead. The limited slip worked pretty well all this time but I agree it would have been a good time to do it
Nice!!
lol i got 2 words air hammer. thank for sharing
The bearing inner race is absolutely not supposed to be opened up like that.
What do you mean?
it was a test bearing you use for set up only
😂
Did that have that style of yoke on it when you got the axle? I have a round plate on the one I’m doing but need to switch it to that kind.
micah haislett yep this came with the 1350 yoke which is convenient. I believe you could get an adapter from your driveshaft to the round yoke style
What was the ratio you re geared to? Did you have to use the 10.25 pinion bearings?

How long did it take you?
Does anyone own the right tools anymore
Alice DEE J!!
🙌
Not the way you torx a ring gear on.
Hey, thank you for the input. This was my first of only a few re-gears. How do you recommend to torque the ring gear bolts?
@Bwanar1 Hate how people become experts but provide no useful comments... how about telling us the way its suppose to be torqued???
Jerry Llanos 😂 I agree. Like I said, I am all ears and open to learning. I’d rather do things properly. It just isn’t helpful to say what is wrong without a suggestion or explanation
Jerry Llanos This was a huge learning experience though, to say the least. I learned I need many more tools to do it properly too
@@4link4wdlol its all good we are all here learning, otherwise there would be no reason to watch these videos. I thought it was a great video. I will say though that ring gear probably should have been torqued in a star pattern. That might have been what he meant by torqued incorrectly.
Did this rookie job last at all
