Don't forget to match the shims and ideally same cups to the proper sides and hand insert the side carriers, just enough to get a few bolts started. Just going to tighten a few bolts on each side for now to then measure backlash and check the ring/pinion gear pattern. Purple arrows are noting that two side carrier bolts from each side go through into the diff housing, will apply some black sealant to these when I install them, not torquing these to spec either, just good and tight! Note I haven't put in the flange seals yet, actually going to use the flanges to push them in as they seal against the flanges anyway.
