Are you asking about the axle measurements when using an ARB locker? You might have to contact the manufacturer to see if there are differences in this specific unit.

Interesting question. The Quaife ATB is also a helical gear style differential. I have not had this unit in had to say if it's more like the Truetrac or the Wavetrac.

Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate it.

As far as the pinion angle goes, I'd recommend starting somewhere around 2-3 degrees down on the engine and transmission. The rear end should start out the opposite around 2-3 degrees up. They are opposite. You can always shim it a degree or two if you get any whine out of the pinion bearing. This is a general starting point. You can email me and I can send you some literature that is helpful from Inland Empire driveshafts. Have a good day @josephvolk7368

There is an offset built into the casting itself on an 8.8. What kind of vehicle is this going into? It sounds like you might've cut off more than you needed to depending what the original rear came out of. If the driveshaft itself is dead center on the rear, one axle shaft will be one inch longer than the short shaft. If you have an equal amount of tube sticking out the casting on each side you'd have a 1/2 offset with equal length axle shafts.

The center section studs with knurling on them you can hit with a hammer to pop them out. You would not want to do this on a fabricated can where the center section studs thread into the housing. Make sure what you are working with before hammering on them.

10 washers, 10 lock washers - 3/8" Have a good day!

The lip seal goes toward the flange of axle shaft. The race will stay in the housing and cone come out on the axle once installed. They will separate. The caliper bracket / retainer plate will catch the seal and press on it and create a preload.

@@redbirdspeed5063 look closely. If the outer race will separate off the bearing. The seal is the only thing holding the axle and cone in .

@@waynep343 czcams.com/video/MAqrjRz1SGQ/video.html Go to the 3 Minute mark. The lip seal goes on first. It rests in there very snug. Press ring goes on last. Bearing is lubed by the gear oil and open. Seal on the outside keeps it from leaking. A caliper bracket or retainer plate will catch the outer edge of the seal and hold the axle in the rear end. It creates a pre load as that seal pushes into the bearing.

You're welcome! Any questions, reach out anytime.

We will cover spool and posi options as soon as possible. Thank you for your comment!

3 Per Side. Wavetrac has 5 per side.

Thank you for watching! We appreciate it.

Thanks!

Ha! Don't be throwing off their measurements. I can see how this would be confusing now.
