Wish I seen this video a few days ago. I just finished hot potatoing a torson T-2r in my s197 ( re used the factory 3.55 ) and OH BOY. It’s concerningly LOUD. I do have spherical diff case bearings. And Polly as well as gutted interior but it sounds like 2 bricks 🧱 rubbing together on accel. 😂. I have a race tomorrow and I’m gonna run it as is and hope it stays together for the event And so I can still drive it home afterwards. Makes me nervous though. Definitely going to be cracking it back open if I make it home re recheck all my work. I did make sure my back lash was correct befor sealing the diff but I have a hunch maybe the carrier preload maybe a bit loose. But I could be wrong and it’s just how the characteristics of torson t2r is with the suspension set up I have but idk. 🤷🏻♂️ hard to find advice from others that have taken the path I have. Doesn’t seem like a common choice for most so definitely feel like I’m on my own

If you're talking the rear, yes you can! This process covers 1982-2012 F-150s with an 8.8" so you're good to go. If you're wondering about 4WD, the front axle is a completely different process.

You got it man! I consider myself mechanically inclined and capable. I did it for the first time ever last month. Just take your time! Once you have hands on and go for it, it isn’t so bad. Just ensure you have a “set up bearing” for the pinon. This set up bearing will ultimately not be used in the end, but will alleviate pressing bearing on/off

my Mustang come with the 2 solid differential shims it's only to shims on each side. Can I replace them with the shims it came with the kit, it has a whole bunch of them in there, or do I need to get the original shims from a dealer?

You can replace the original shims if you have a size that works for you. The original shims are a baseline to help you find the correct sizing if you have a new set. For this video we did not have the originals, so we had to guess on an initial measurement and go from there.

Is the pinion bearing preload value the same for all differential types?
