When you had to much shim installed you could have used a dial indicator to figure out just how much slop you had. Better than guessing and would get you in the ballpark more quickly.
Check this out. This is what I got from offroad design and everything was correct. www.offroaddesign.com/d60-differential-re-bearing-kit-includes-both-pinion-bearings-with-races-both-carrier-bearings-with-races-inner-axle-seals-pinion-seal-and-nut.html Thanks for watching
How much shimming did you put behind inside pinnion race ? Im working on a dana 60 that didnt have much for correct shimming in it and starting from scratch
Before I could get the pinion nut to 250ftlbs there was so much preload on the pinion that it would not turn. So not enough shims, no need to continue tightening the pinion nut. Thanks for watching!
Why did you have to play with the number of shims if you were just re-using the original shims? If you used the same shims that came off during disassembly, then wouldn’t the pinion go on having the same tolerances as before disassembly?

I like to put the race in the freezer before installing, shrinks the metal a tad. Great video.
The freezer trick works great. Thanks for watching!
Seen you on Facebook figured I'd give a sub
Glad to see the progress.
Thanks for watching
Great video !
Thanks for watching!
Just found your channel. Looking foward to more content on this truck.

Thanks for the tip!
Hey, this is your nephew's best friend, I know Connor from school. P.S. This is your new friend Carson Bowser
Hey Carson, thanks for watching!
Did you measure the old bearings and compared them to the new bearings? Sometimes different bearing manufacturers are slightly different!
No I didn't, but that's not a bad idea. Thanks for watching!
Great video man. Quick question though how did you get the pinion back out every time to change the shims? I can't get mine to budge.
Thanks for watching! I didn't have any problems getting mine out. Have you tried a few smacks with a mallet?
Red loctite omfg that ain't never coming off with out melting it ahhahahah
If you had to remove it by hand it would suck! But I have a big impact that will get it off no problem. Thanks for watching!
Where can I find the bearings for a dana 60. The ones I get from the part stores are way off.

Sorry but I never measured the pinion depth shims. Wish I could be more help
what did you mean at 4:55 that you couldnt get it to 250lbs but also couldnt move it?

@@Offroadfarm1 ahhhhh thats perfect thanks! helps me understand how the preload works too. appreciate your videos man.

I did upgrade to a 1350 yoke and that is why I had to change my shims. Thanks for watching!
