Significant Technical Input
Re: front differential setup how to and re-rebuild of genuine Subaru Remanufactured 4

With our new shim installed we will have to redo our side plate settings before checking the contact pattern again. We have to loosen our lh retainer before installing the pump then redo our finding our zero point setting our lh retainer then setting our bearing preload. Then we take it apart again, re-apply our matching compound, put it back together again, give it a few turns forwards, give it a few turns backwards, take it apart again, and see what we have. It's much better. It's good even. The pattern on the ring gear has shifted towards the middle and gotten bigger. We want the pattern to be a little towards the toe side like it is. Under load it will shift towards the heal. The pattern on the pinion has shifted towards the middle and gotten much bigger.
