Really enjoy watching you and your brother working together. Your brother is a wealth of knowledge. You both are unstoppable when together. Really impressed that O'Reilly came over to help out. You guys arent afraid of stuff you eventually find wrong. You see a problem you attack it. You guys are a great joy to watch while the rest of us, the country, is locked down. Keep on plodding along. It's great you are able to do all that you do. Looking forward to more of your videos. Stay safe, stay healthy. Until then my "brothers". Thanks!

All Raptors come stock with 4.10 gears, front and rear. The gen1 and gen2 front differentials are the same also. So you can literally grab any raptor front diff and it would work. Only option is the Torsen front diff, which is nice but not completely necessary.

[@lambition]

Did you check lash and pinion bearing preload on that diff? It is more involved than simple swap.. I destroyed my rear diff because I slightly over torqued pinion nut when I changes seal. Took 1/2 year before it failed..

[@maxwell6504]

nope, he didnt. diff is probably gonna blow.

[@Backyardmech1]

Let alone did he also check to see if the ring and pinion teeth were meshing properly and adding the correct spacers on either side of the carrier.

[@scrappyhustler7467]

In case nobody noticed Westen and dom are trained professionals and they are boob tube mechanics which make them again professional!

[@chrisrice2083]

Was the gear pattern even checked on the front diff. You have to set the pinion preload/carrier preload and adjust with shims. Probably will chop out the gear set rather quickly.

[@geoffmoroney9283]

Yeah, didn't see a dial gauge or gear marking compound on that work bench.

Luke Sanders glad i wasn't the only person who noticed that .... Honestly i would had stripped the differential down and welded the case !

Many more misses and Weston will be doing something else. Very expensive stuff to find after you start rebuilding. Hard to do in a rented garage.

[@donmathias1705]

Tech tip. When you have a choice as to which way to put a nut and bolt together such as a shock bolt, try and put them in so that if they need to come out at a later stage, its easier to do. In other words, make it so it can be tapped thru with a pin punch rather that pulled using a vice grip.
