That is not possible, or else the gear oil is masking the play. There will always be play due to backlash on a properly set up rear. The only way to check backlash is to pull the cover and check it with a dial indicator. Twisting the pinion counterclockwise and clockwise won't tell you anything.Fudgehog wrote:Just got it delivered. Between moving the pinion left and right there's no play for me.

Re: Future Diff swap to 3.27
When I spin the pinion I get a light click back and forth with about an 1/8 inch of play or so. It is barely discernable.
And Gene I doubt your diff is that bad. Probably over thinking it like I do with everything lol.
