The instructions do not mention reinstalling the thrust washers but I will try that, when I installed without them it seemed to have to much play

I just tried to install with the thrust washers but there is not enough room to get the other gear in back to square one!

- Remove the bolts on the differential cover and drain the oil.
- There is a cross shaft retaining bolt that holds the cross shaft in place. Remove this bolt and the cross shaft can be removed.
- Push in each axle to remove the c-clips (if the vehicle has c-clips). C-Clips hold the axles in place. On some vehicles, the axles are held in place at the outer ends of the axles near the wheels.
- Remove the stock side and spider gears and the thrust washers that are on the these gears.
- Install the Lock-Right gears in place of the original side and spider gears. The thrust washers are re-used. If the vehicle uses c-clips they are put back in place.
- Install the cross shaft, retaining bolt, differential cover and fill with oil.

Be sure the use the included gauge to check your spacing. Its a piece of key stock and the instructions tell you where and how to check.

Just to clear everything up, no thrust washer with the NO-SLIP. Use the check block to make sure the center spacing is correct. With the LOCK RIGHT thrust washers are reused.
