Need some help.. I have replaced the pinion crush sleeve on my 489 case with an eliminator kit. I am using used bearings and when I set it at only about 4 inch pounds preload, it seems the yoke has too much resistance in it... I do not have the ring gear in yet. I am just not sure how tight it should be to turn without the gears in it.. and don;'t want to wreck anything
Can Anyone offer suggestions on how tight the pinion should be to turn"by feel" in this circumstance..? My old open rear end seems to have a lot less rolling resistance, even with the gears in it..
Thanks
