FTBR Question

[650BlackVnm]

So I just bought a IRS complete with a FTBR kit. I removed the pumpkin to switch out the gears, and the shims in the front diff mount feel out. So my first question is, how do I go about setting those up the right way? Second question is what kind of grease should I use for the grease fittings? I looked on the FTBR website, and didn't find anything, also e-mailed and didn't get a response.

i'll look at my directions if i can find them, how many shims are there in total?

1st question: Setting Pinion Angle

2nd question: Find out whet the previous owner used and use a grease that is compatible with it or the same.

Excepting possible compatibility issues with the previous grease, any typical chassis grease from a local parts store will work for that app.

Don't have instructions, because I bought the IRS used with the bushing kit in it already.

Thanx for the info, I'm gonna ask the previous owner. :thumbsup:

If you don't have the lowering mount, raise it all the way up in the front. If you do have the lowering mount, I found 1 shim on top to be perfect for me.
