Hello,
I have just put my M-Type diff in to a specialist to be set  up. The chap
that's doing the work has noticed that there is some 'end play' in the
pinion shaft and he is not sure if it was assembled in the correct order. He
says that there are two bearings, a thrust bearing and a carrier bearing for
the pinion. He is wondering if they may have been transposed at some time.
Does anyone have any knowledge of the way all of the pinion bits and pieces
go together ? Or is the 'end play' normal for these cars. My specialist
thinks it will cause problems on deceleration.
Lyndon Pope.
