Questions on installing a new differential
Would like to remove the factory LS on an 06 superduty. If it is a simple operation of removing the old and swapping the ring gear onto a new true trac or some other brand do I need to worry about pinion depth, should it change at all. I understand the need to check backlash, bearing preload and how to adjust by shimming but was wondering if the pinion depth would need to be a concern or if it would simply stay the same as the ring gear should reinstall in the same position relative to the pinion gear and in line with the axle shafts if I am visualizing it correctly.
Thanks
Eric
