It seems mine are binding at the cvd end, not the cup/dogbone end. My dogbones are sitting just about dead center in the cups when the a-arms are level to the ground. I have my pillowballs screwed in as far as possible without the carrier "lips" hitting the a-arms when articulated but I can make a slightly wider PVC spacer to go behind the inner carrier bearing to move the cvd's towards the diffs another 1/8 inch if I need too.


Manne, I left the shims the way they were on my diffs, one was fairly smooth and the other is a little notchy but not so bad I'm worried about it. I think a few hours of running will wear it in. I may be going to heavier diff fluid at some point so I'll play around with the shims a little then....I only saw one shim on the non ring gear side on my diffs though, I'm not sure if it had any others but I didn't look real close.
