    Love this tutitorial, it got me out of a jam! Spider gears fell out on me, for the life of me I could figure out how to get them back in place. I gave up after 40 mins, took a break and decided to utube it. Bingo, Yukon to the rescue!!! Went back, done in no time! Thanks Yukon!

    Please Help ! I just rebuilt a GM rear, 10 bolt 7.625 .. All new gears , bearings bolts etc. I got all the specs right , pre - load and backlash etc but after installing the spider gears , I immediately noticed how it seems like there's too much play when turning the yoke back and forth by hand. Is there a backlash spec for the spider gears ? I used new thrust washers on the planetary gears , am I missing something ??

  • @AceBoy2099
    @AceBoy2099 Жыл бұрын

    Are those washers like a spacer and "adjustable" (add or remove for fit, similar to the carrier bearing washers) or is it just 1 per side? I'm trying to figure out if i want to rebuild mine or just buy a new one from somewhere, will need just about everything, not sure about ring and pinion though. Toyed with changing the gearing while I had to have it apart but don't know how to fix speedo for it (1999 ford f150), any tips on that?

    I don't know that it would help you but on those I normally put the carrier in a vise stick the axle in one end and turn it with a pair of grips. You can also do a piece of threaded rod through one end of the axle hole with big washers on each side and smash one of the gears in real tight against the clutch packs but generally helps It go in a little easier

    Don't get what your saying entirely but I would check the pinion and carrier bearings if the roaring is coming from rear. Look for play on pinion yolk.

    Works great, except how do you do it in the vehicle? The clips on the ends of the axles need to be in place before the spiders, or I will NEVER lock the shaft in. But you did show that the shim plates must go in, and that is important.

    Just did my first spider gear install yesterday. I'm sure you already did yours being you posted a year ago. It took me a while to realize that the gears have to be placed directly across from each other. I put the pin through to make sure. First I tried with the washers/shims. Even with grease they would fall off when rotated. I left them off until I got the gears almost in place. I installed the hardest washer first. Then installed the other. Then I rotated to the pin hole. No problem afterwards. I agree. You don't have much clearance when installing the axles and the clips with that pin in there.

    @@REsuperGRX7 I'll tell you something you can do that might help you. Taking stick the two bigger spider gears that slide inside the carrier back inside and then run you a bolt through where the axle would go in the carrier of course the carrier has to be out of the rear end and put you some big washers on each side and a nut and tighten that gear up into the carrier that'll allow you a bunch more room to put the spider gears back in the problem with putting spider gears in is them two big gears with the clutch packs or washers on the inside of them they normally hang out and makes it hard as hell to put the washers and spiders back in hope it helps. Only do it to one side of the gear because you'll have to put the axle in the other side to turn the spider gears in hope that makes sense

    if you are referencing the welded cases on our zip lockers, we weld the cases to improve durability on applications where we have seen a pattern failure due to them being installed incorrectly. lack of carrier bearing preload allows housing deflection , and by welding the cases we remove the load from the bolts improving durability and longevity. this allows us to offer the best warranty in the industry on the zip lockers,
