Front pinion bearing fit

Ok since the ability to have any foresight and use your head is so lacking here, i'll explain since you want to carry on like a girl reading into things.

You said you set the pinion depth with the old bearing and didn't state not to use it to set the preload, you MR. all knowing has said this in a thread with people that are not all knowing as you and will make the mistake and use OLD bearings for set up...

You are putting **** in a thread with no real explanation....


So lets start at the beginning ....

Hog out the old front bearing, if you have one, so it slides on easily and use that for setting pinion depth. All it's there for is to center up the pinion.

That is SO MISLEADING to someone that probably should never be touching a diff....

Don't use a OLD worn bearing for a new set up, buy a new bearing make it the set up bearing....

Then the 2nd time you were using your head being somewhat more CLEAR

Yes, but, the front pinion bearing does nothing except center it up when setting pinion depth. It's an option if someone was concerned about pressing the newer bearing on and off the front snout.

Yes, I never use an old big end bearing to set pinion depth.

Then for those that don't understand diffs i explained what the front pin bearing does since to someone that has no clue will only believe that is simply holds the pin centered..

Then i added this comment for the front pin bearings responsibility and why you wouldn't use that bearing any further.
Which if all you're worried about is pin depth you wouldn't want to waste time with either old or new bearing

The front bearing is responsible for preload.
Using a worn bearing for that is going to change things.


Then as i see it, there is no quote to you, im not speaking to you and as i said earlier......

then you went on some more..... and i laughed out loud,
lol You didn't say you didn't use it to either
finding it funny you had seen this as your problem

Then sgbarracuda so desperately needed to read into something that isn't and added further nonsense,
You and I are on the same page here. I think for whatever reason Supershafts is trying to belittle us or suggest he is the guru of diff setting up. And all others are wrong! I've set up (and this is a guess) 100 or so rears so "this ain't my first rodeo."

where i then said

No both of you are making that theory up all on your own...

Im glad the 2 diff guys are clear of the problems that make headaces for the rest of the people from lack of being clear and specific of what to do and why...

Yes hand holding is needed on the internet

Glad to make your point that you ignored, and glad to see what you're really like..

I corrected them for their mistakes as now you might see the same....

lol have at it
