LR90 Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 in case it doesn't, then it must be the bearing. can that be changed in situ or does the diff have to come out?regards orange Lets hope the seal fixes it. You cluld probably change the front bearing with the diff in situ but behind it are a number of shims to set the preload. Getting these right is not going to be easy with the unit in situ and you have no chance of changing the rear bearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are shims behind the inner bearing to set the pinion height. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
