      That’s what it takes to get the perfect tolerance in a diff. I’ve built hundreds of them and my tolerance and the factory tolerance were much different. When set up correctly a diff will last a long time. I only ever had one bearing on a Dana 35 that the inner race was out of round.

Second, it's not like water (or other) contamination that ruins the lubricating properties of the oil. The metal itself isn't ther problem, but it says that something is wearing abnormally.

      @@chestervaldes7551 It's not a terrible idea to clean things out and if you have an axle seal fail, it would be more important. But it's really not that critical, especially if the axle seals are in good shape and weren't leaking. If you're really concerned about it, you could always epoxy a couple rare earth magnets into the bottom of the case to collect any big chunks but I wouldn't be overly concerned.
      Last time I put an axle together, cleaning out the tubes consisted of some degreaser soaked shop rags wrapped around a broom handle. Pretend like it's a big shotgun.

Took it back to Ford and they said it was normal. I didn’t believe them so I took it to another dealer and service manager said there is a definite problem. Took it back to the original dealer and told them I wanted this fixed right and stop giving me the runaround. So they installed another ring and pinion and it’s quiet now.

    A tip for getting the broke bolt out of the center pin ..take a small mini screwdriver that has a magnet in the top,like the sales reps give away...take a shrink wrap tube ,put the magnet in the tube ,heat shrink wrap on both sides of the magnet ,trim top edge as close to magnet as possible,,,,clean hole good with brake clean &, blow dry with air hose..(watch you're eyes!)..happy fishing..it will slide perfect into the hole,dont have to worry about loosei g magnet in hole,& as long as the magnet is strong enough it will stick to bolt & turn it ,dont force it ,stay calm & it will come out..

    I used to rebuild lots of differential units in cars, trucks and large wheel loaders as a fleet mechanic for a Rock Quarry many years ago in NZ. We did all our engine, transmission and differential rebuilds in-house in the quarry workshop. I always used bearing blue to wipe on crown wheel to check contact pattern and put a wedge on the back of the crown wheel to create lots of drag when turning the pinion to get a good crown wheel tooth marking. Sometimes it was a bit of trial and error work to get the pinion shims right to get a correct depth/mesh pattern. If the mesh pattern is incorrect it will cause a wine in and a possible failure due the the load not spread evenly on the teeth. 🚜🚗🚛
