[6pack] Differential Carrier Bearing Shims

[Bill]

We fought these problems for two  years, with very little success, 
finally gave up and switched to Richard Goods  Differential, Shaft 
and Hubs upgrade kits ... the difference is amazing ... all the 
components from Richard are of the highest quality and installation 
is  relatively simple (I was able to do it ...)  Not cheap, but you 
get what you pay for ...
