so I bought a used stock posi carrier a number of years ago and had it installed. it's always howled a little bit especially turning a corned to the right.
Last week I figured out that I needed to rebuild it so I did.
In trying to remove the carrier, I had to drive the C-clip on the left side out with a punch, and the right side clip fell out by itself.
I thought that when I reinstalled it, I would have to shim it to the left a bit more to be able to get the c clip in easier.
I measured the backlash and it's around 10 - 12 thou, so I'm pretty sure I can't shim the carrier left.
Has anybody ever seen anything like this before??? I think the howl is from the backlash but I won't be able to install the axle if I reduce the backlash any more.
thanks,
nathan
