[QUOTE="Booksix, post: 7965744, member: 25465"] Ok, initial inspection shows no damage to any of the gears so I'm think I'm good there. [url]http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums/attachments/5-0-mustangs/13632d1204597023-trac-lok-rebuild-how-100_2825.jpg[/url] So, considering that pic is a diff with shot clutches mine are definitely toast! I'm actually wondering if the clutch pack depth will even be in spec when I pull and measure them; I say this because, if they are not, I won't know what dimension to shim the new packs to...? I checked backlash and it appears to be around .004". Way too tight. So, I was hoping I could get direction on this as well. The way I understand it is there are shims on each side of the carrier and by simply removing them from one side and placing them on the other side you can tighten or loosen the backlash. Is this correct? edit: I checked the wear pattern and got this: [ATTACH=full]1011562[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1011563[/ATTACH] If I've looked at this and the chart right, it appears I need a thinner pinion shim...? I know they are hard to see, but it looks like the second row down on this chart: [url]https://w05.dealerconnect.chrysler.com/service/mds2002/serviceInfo/en_US/80d04e58.gif[/url] [/QUOTE]
