3.2 Approximate Backlash Shimming
In order to reproduce a similar pre-load and ring and pinion backlash
in your Air Locker to that of your original differential, measurements
need to be taken so that a shim thickness can be calculated.
Secure the original differential to a work bench.
Remove the bolts that hold the ring gear in place.
Using a plastic or copper hammer, tap in a circle around the ring
gear to separate it from the differential carrier.

Assemble the original bearing cup and OE Master Shim onto the
cone of the right-hand side of the original differential carrier.
