Shows how varying pinion depth and back lash a few thousandths of an inch affect ring and pinion pattern. Sequential Graphic detail from too deep to to shallow, and from too little backlash to too much backlash.

I been watching a ton of videos on car repair and I had no idea of the level of precision, shims, checking contact points, etc, required to repair or upgrade a differential. I remember getting a quote once to change a final drive ratio on a car I had. The quote I got was way beyond what I was expecting, and I passed on it. Now I understand that this type of thing is not something simple like swapping out an alternator for example.

Excellent video Carl.Just subscribed. Marked as favorite so I don't lose it! I'm going to swap a set of gears between 2 different 8 inch fords, one posi one open. the gear set in the posi is worn-3.55/open is good -3.25. What I'll do before disassembling the 3.25 unit is check the pattern, then, after removing the carrier, check the pinion depth, also backlash. Doing the same on the posi unit (note- the housing set I'm using is post 1967-posi. the gear set is coming out of is an early style 1962 housing. A lot note taking and pictures) When I get done I'll end up with an 8 inch 3.25 posi differential in a post 1967 housing. New bearings, clutch pack, solid pinion spacer. Wish me luck!😆

Best explanation I've seen so far of this topic... Well done Carl ! FWIW I'm setting up my 2003 Mustang GT Automatic with 3:73 gears because the stock 3:27 have started whining on acceleration at 140k miles for some odd reason which I'm not sure of the cause, maybe loosened up pinion nut? So since I'm in the carrier anyway replacing bearings, races etc I might as well bump up the gears a little as well. Thanks again for a very clear explanation of gear patterns.

I found it very helpful. Changed the carrier in my 97 S-10 to a Torsen from a 2000 Z-28. I used the original 3:42 gears that were the original ones from the S-10 housing. Replaced all the bearings and it was way off,carrier had to be reshimmed. Got it adjusted to .006 and it works great. I ditched the crush sleeve and used a solid pinion spacer with shims. That was alot easier than crushing the sleeve. I've never used a crush sleeve. I always replace it with the solid spacer and shims. I've heard slightly crushing them in a press between 2 steel plates makes it much easier. Just crush it unit the bulged part of the sleeve just barley starts to crush. I've heard sometimes it can take up to 500 ft/lbs just to start crushing some crush sleeves. That would be dang near impossible to do with the axle in the car without a lift,wouldn't it? Maybe there's a secret technique I'm not aware of?😀

You’re right! Crushing one in the car that’s that tight is a beating.

Crush in press between two flat plates, place old sleeve next to it plus a .020” shim as a gauge, crush till the plates just tickle the old sleeve plus shim.

@superjeep4710 жыл бұрын
Thanks, I have been thinking of redoing the vid, as I do more set ups and compare what I'm seeing with more scrutiny what I see is, the pattern moves more in an S curve, (which I say in the vid) but is much more pronounced than how I showed it. The pattern moves in a diagonal when you are way off but more in an S when you are plus or minus .008 " in pinion depth. So when you get a good/ fair pattern, sometime you just have to play a few thousands deeper or shallower to get is perfect as can be.

Thank you for an excellent video. I am renewing bearings in a dana 44 using original ring and pinion and the same pinion shims. In ignorance I did not check the pattern first and now I am finding it difficult, some sources say it is not possible to get a good pattern on used gears. I also find that backlash varies on most teeth, the best I can get is .004" min to 010" max which is in spec according to my manual. Would you be happy to go with that, this is a Jag RIS so I don't want to do it twice.

Thank you ,I was having trouble setting up a used ring gear , I Had It close ,But the ring gear was exactly the pattern you say ,When it is out to far , I could never get it to come into the real pattern , The backlash calls for 6 to 10 . It was at 11 ,Tightened the back lash to 004 , its perfect , Im Going to put it at the minimum of oo6 tomorrow , The point is for no explainable reason , When the backlash was 11 which is 001 over spec , It looks like pinion to far out pattern you showed , Bringing the backlash down , has solved it , I didnt know , 001 over speck meant much , or 002 under spec would make it move tothe right place . At any rate a great big thank you for this video !

Wow...this is like the Rosetta stone for understanding gear patterns. Glad I found this video. Agree with other post stating the ovals tied the whole explanation together. If I change only my carrier and leave the pinion setup alone, can I get away with using the original carrier shim setup ? Or will it most likely change ? Thanks for taking the time to create these videos, share your knowledge and your experience.

When you get the gear set that is hard to get both sides matching , always get the drive side right. The coast is reverse and not under high loads. The pattern that is ideal splashes the oil out away as the tooth comes in. This vid nails ut
