rdorman Rick Sorry the mind is alot faster than the 2 fingers. Magnetic base or visegrip mount for the dial indicator. I wouldn't go with what Butch said about the play. Alot of play is going to wearout any set of bearing faster. If you repack a set of bearing on an older GM car with wheel bearing, there is a perload set than back off than retighen finger tight and put the cotter pin in the next closest hole. If this was true why would shims of .003-.010 than every .005 from .110 up? I would reset the endplay to .002-.004 and check with a dial gauge. I will look for my Jag book and see what they say about checking the endplay and adjustment. Loose endplay in the hub could cause perwear in the carrierand banging of the pinion shaft. I will get back to you Rick Lake Ps where's Chalpin, Wife must have him under control
