Chryco 8.25 gear adjustment question, please help!
Hey everyone, last night I removed my carrier from the Chryco 8.25 axle upon suggestion of my friend to make sure everything was okay, I know...bad idea. The carrier did not come apart, but the adjusters on the side fell out of the bearing caps. What do I need to do to adjust these properly? Thanks in advance CF!

you should be able to see the marks on the diff housing where the bearing caps sat, and where the spacers and bearing races sat on the bearing caps. use these marks to line up the spacers on the caps as close as possible, and use the marks in the diff housing to set the caps. fiddle with it till you get it exactly on the marks and you should be good. this is how i did mine last week.
