for used bearings I just measure the starting torque before taking the diff apart and then set it up to that. Hi Scottie, yes my research confirms what you've just said. If using the old bearings then set them back to the preload at which they were removed. I didn't do this, set the preload to fact...

Hi, new here. I'm rebuilding a set of differentials and struggling to get the side bearings at an affordable price. All the retailers are saying that they are in minimal production and therefore expensive :/ Timken ones are £80 per bearing! Boyes has some cheap source, so I wanted to PM him for info...
