This video features the reassembly of the differential on this 1966 Corvette restoration project. Part 1 was the disassembly. New bearings, new seals, and some new gears were installed.

Extremely fortunate that failed pin did not crater the ring gear and pinion, possibly even the case. You stopped driving it just in time. Quite the blessing by my way of looking at things. Really enjoying your videos, thanks for taking the time to make them.

It's good to see someone who knows what they are doing. It's even better when he has enough confidence that he isn't scared of periods of silence while he's working. No stupid, annoying music is a rare thing to find on videos and it's a pleasant surprise.

There are only a few people out there that can do quality bodywork/welding / fabricating and be a mechanic as well . lots of one or the other but having all the skills is rare. good job as always.

I thought about a posi but decided against it because I don't plan to be doing any burnouts or driving in the snow and I didn't want the possibility of any chatter going around corners. Thanks for watching.

NOT GOOD TO POUND ON SHIMS.. YOU NEED A DIFF EXPANDING TOOL.. NO POUNDING ON SHIMS

Hey, Thanks for the comments and for watching. Yes I know knocking the shims in is not the best way but I don't have the tool you mention. However, I did not have to overdo it on the pounding :) I weighed the option of posi-traction and decided not to because I'm not going to be doing any burn outs or high speed cornering ... just building a nice street cruiser. The posi's have clutches that wear out and always a possibility of some chattering around corners so decided that I didn't need it.
