PLEASE HELP!
Hey guys..getting thoroughly pissed off here.
doing clutch packs and carrier bearings on a 9.25 3.92 rear end.
I need someone that KNOWS diffs so I can bug them about a couple things.
Most importantly I need to know which way the clutch pack spring ring (?) goes in. I know the order of the pack but I have gotten mixed reviews as to whether the last non grooved spring ring goes in. Convex in towards the back of the side gear (back of gear INTO the bowl shape) or convex out away from back of the gear and out towards the other clutch and spacer rings (bowl facing AWAY from back of side gear).

I currently (as per a few pages I found online) have the diff reassembled with the cup shapes facing into the diff center and facing the back of the side gears. I cannot move the gears at all now though after removing my bolts that compressed the clutches enough to get the spiders and thrust washers into place. It seems far too tight to me.

thanks ahead.
