Help with differential pattern

gruchol · Mar 8, 2017

Hi,
I bought RAM 5.7 RWD 9.25 with new ring and pinion (have about 700 miles), but not twisted nut on pinion. Now mount new all bearing and want adjust correct differential pattern, but it looks weird. Can somebody look on photo and write something advice.
Pinon shim 0,026" BL- 0,010

Bump for good luck. I'd like to know how this gets adjusted as well. Not that I'm doing mine, but I would like to attempt it in the future.

It looks to me like the ring gear is too far away from the pinion gear. You need to loosen the passenger side adjuster and tighten the driver side up in small increments.

Its a little late but I hope this helps.

Too much pinion depth try adjusting the pinion depth by either using the depth tool or removing shims in .005 incerments. DO NOT USE THE SIDE ADJUSTERS. That is for backlash and CARRIER BEARNING preload.

Before changing the pinion shim I would tighten up the backlash to around .006-.007 and re check pattern. Also you want to spin it by the ring gear not the pinion and you want a smooth rotation around the pattern check location as starting and stopping the turn will give you a strange pattern.
