Select the two C-clips which are closest to the thickness you

calculated above without going over, and replace the ones you
measured with.

NOTE : The objective here is only to attain a slip fit between

the thrust block and the axles without any slop (too
loose) or binding (too tight). You may find that the
smallest 2.80mm [0.110”] clips are the best size.
Leave them installed in this case.

Insert the thrust block into the center of the spider block and then

insert them both onto the short cross shaft.

F

Insert the long cross shaft maintaining alignment between the cross

shaft retaining pinhole in the differential and its corresponding hole
in the cross shaft.

misaligned with the cross shaft holes when inserting
the cross shaft.

Insert the cross shaft retaining pin and tighten.

Reinstall the drive shaft.
