I need to to check the bolts for peace of mind. I know I saw it before but for the life of me I cannot find. I need the info for carrier and the wheel bearing retainer.

However, the axel could be moved in and out almost 1/8 inch. Is there a spacer that could go behind the seal that could push everything in and keep it tighter?
techno1154 said:The pinion is hard to turn by hand but I do nt know what it should be with all new parts. It is a lot more difficult to turn compeared to the used diff that I have felt.
OLAK said:possibly too much preload. I have seen d44 pinion preload quoted from 14-19, 20-45, and 20-40. around 20 seems to take in all those. you really should have a proper inch pound dial type torque indicator, as this is a pretty important measurement
you need to measure this without the carrier installed. It will be harder to turn still with the carrier and gears ( even more so with lower gear ratios) and seal
