    Rotary Polisher Talk

    Luckily I'm practicing on a bare aluminum snowmobile tunnel so it's not like I have anything to burn through. I am finding it takes a bit more careful technique to get the same results as the DA. I guess practice makes perfect!

    Rotary Polisher Talk

    I've already bought the more expensive Flex Rotary. Orbital for sale! :gr_grin:http://www.s197forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=126185 The heaviest cut I've use is M105 with a Cyan med cut foam pad which gets "most" everything out but that's with me being very picky. I agree that I should try...

    Rotary Polisher Talk

    Probably a shot in the dark here but I'm wondering if anyone has any experience between Flex rotary polisher models L3403 and the PE 14-2 150. I currently have the Flex DA but would like to give a rotary a try. There's about $100 difference between the two rotary models without a clear...

    Rear End Movement on Abrubt Driveline Loads

    That's def on the list of possibilities to check but any advice on how to check it? Place loads on it in various directions to check for any play? I tried doing this with the wheels on and the car in the air but they felt pretty solid.

    Rear End Movement on Abrubt Driveline Loads

    Well I have an update for anyone that was interested. Just got the car back down on the ground last night. I feel like an idiot but I fixed the rear end shimmy, it was the relocation brackets (good call abdulla). I re-torqued everything upon reassembly and the middle bolt in the BMR relocation...

    Rear End Movement on Abrubt Driveline Loads

    Bushings are on their way. Axle end play may not be an issue since I just realized that those measurements were with the center pin in the differential removed. :crazy:

    Rear End Movement on Abrubt Driveline Loads

    That could be a good point. I looked at where the bearings ride on the axle shafts but didn't know what abnormal wear would look like. I'll try to snap some pics tonight.

    Rear End Movement on Abrubt Driveline Loads

    Im gonna be royally pissed at myself if that ends up being my problem lol. Not really sure what I want to do as far as my rear end goes. Anyone know the specified thickness of the clutch plates?

    Any tricks to getting the ring gear off the diff? All the bolts are out and am following some write ups but it won't budge

    Rear End Movement on Abrubt Driveline Loads

    The axle is off right now. The c clips are out and don't look bent or deformed. Gonna take the diff out now to take a look at the clutch packs. The only thing between the c clips and the axle hub that could allow this play that I can see are the clutch packs.

    Rear End Movement on Abrubt Driveline Loads

    Yeah I do and I had that thought as well. They were/are tight and there are no witness marks anywhere that would indicate they were moving.

    Rear End Movement on Abrubt Driveline Loads

    Update: Axle is off and looking into the differential. The axle play (distance I can move the rear axle inboard/outboard) on the driver side is around 1/4" and on the passenger side closer to 1/2". Did a little searching around and it looks like most people say this is a little excessive and...

    Rear End Movement on Abrubt Driveline Loads

    So you would agree that deformation I'm seeing shouldn't be an issue? Can you tell from the pics if the UCA bushing is shot or not? Thinking i'll end up taking it off anyway to check it out but i'm not gonna hold my breath considering the main job of the UCA is pinion angle right? In order...

    One of the heim joints was fairly seized up that I coaxed into moving more freely. Wouldn't think that would do much but idk.

    LCA/Panhard bar bushings. Look okay to me. Some deformation on outboard surface of body-side LCA bushings... Body-side UCA bushing (1). Body-side UCA bushing (2). Blurry axle side UCA bushing shots. I don't think I'm seeing a smoking gun here in these...

    Rear End Movement on Abrubt Driveline Loads

    Yeah I've recently torqued the fasteners on my lca's and panhard. I've tried shaking things around with my hand before and didn't find anything loose but will try again. Thanks for the responses.
