BMTHUG 1032 Report post Posted Friday at 11:15 AM Had to rebuild my 3.73 lsd diff today. It suddenly became very noisy and turns out the last person who rebuilt it didn't set the preload on the pinion shaft bearings properly leading them to seize up over the usage it has seen with me. Took the time to give it a lick of paint and properly set the preload after changing all the bearings for good measure. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BMTHUG 1032 Report post Posted 4 hours ago So i finally got my wheels done. I've assembled them all and still waiting for the sealer to dry on two of them. I fitted the tyres to the two that are sealed already and did a test fit to see what they look like on the car. Pretty impressed. Running Nankang NS20 195/45/16 on the front 8 inch rims and 205/45/16 on the 9 inch rears. I don't like overly stretched tyres anymore so this is a good happy medium for me.
