sorry to be off topic but does anyone know a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost my password. I appreciate any help you can give me
@Koda Harlan i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
13:48 If anyone wants to know what that special tools is: it's a Yukon Gear & Axle YT P20 or P22 Differential Carrier Bearing Puller (difference between the two is a couple of pieces that aren't used in this job). I used my new P22 today to remove the bearings from two 3.9 Final Drive LSDs (center and front in a TY856) and it work flawlessly. Also note that you'll want to pick up a 1/2" drive 1.5" impact socket to drive the "press"
This is one of the best videos I've seen. You really talk everything through and explain each step of the way, the how, the why and the wherefore. Thank you so much. I really appreciate your time and expertise you have shared.
Great video and very informative! I like that you let Paul speak / teach without attempting to interrupt or speak over him. You were also respectful with the O ring question.
13:16 Fun little tip and trick (though it doesn't always work and so isn't as reliable): you can hold side bearing retainer (SUbaru calls it a "Holder axle bearing") under a stream of hot water and the outer race will sometimes just fall out. I'm not trying to tell this professional how to do his job, btw. Just an extra "tool" for the viewers to put in their toolbox.
I was just looking up lsd rebuilds for my 2015 and stumbled upon this, this man is a magician, a sage even. Absolutely mesmerizing watching him take apart and rebuild the whole damn differential
This video works for the R160 as well. Everything is the same in positioning and installation. Except the carrier bearings go a bit further than past the flat. I used the old bearing to finish the press. Same with the front diff, as they are the same bearings.
Thanks, currently have the r160 open diff out of my 17wrx and this helps with reconstruction. The pinion (smaller) spider gears lost a few teeth as seems to be common failure point.
A few tips, I recommend not using oil on the new races. Using oil or grease can cause the the races to spin ruining the case. If they are loose fitting from being spun you can use bearing lock from loctite. You want them clean and dry before installing them, and the case .i would recommend not pressing the bearing from race on the pinion, should be pressed by the inner race of the bearing cone. Using a chisel to press in the front pinion race is not correct using the old bearing race making sure it’s not backwards that way you can tap it out if it gets stuck works but using a proper bearing race driver is better. And smashing the seal in with a hammer? Use the old front bearing race it’s the perfect fit, to safely press the seal in
I really like this video. I've watched it lots of times. I am trying to do the same thing on my R160 rear diff (AP Suretrac in case that matters). I cannot get the smaller pinion race into position. It is not entirely clear from this video how it's done. The mechanic uses his big tool with bit broken off it, but there is an obstruction that prevents me getting the race in position. It gets close, but then gets stuck. I've heated the case to about 150C in the oven and put the race in the freezer, still stuck. Would love some good advice please!
Hi Paul I would like to ask for some info on these rear R180 differentials I am building a 4x4 cross-kart buggy and using this R180 in the rear and front I was getting a front one out of a Nissan 720 4x4 truck but they are pretty much gone but being an R180 can I take a rear one and set it up in the front what is the difference on the ring gear my drive train turns to the left when setting in the buggy how can I change the ring gear to a front-drive set up can you send me some pictures of rear ring gear and a front ring gear stand them up to show the direction the rear one and front one in line thank you Steven.
Front and rear bearing preload For new bearing: 18.6 - 25.5N (1.9 2.6 kg.) 4.2- 5.7 ib) With Spring balance at companion flange bolt hole. Info from service manual for 1997 subaru impreza only. Drive Pinion Nut Torque Specs. Start low and increase to achieve preload. 181 - or + 15 N-m (18.5 - or + 1.5 kg-m), 134 - or + 11 ft-lb) 1 inch lb of torque is 12 ft-lb, so 4 inch pound of torque as shown in preload video is equivalent to 48 ft-lb
How do you get the middle pinion bearing race in? It is not very clear. I am doing my R160 AP Suretrac rear diff. I cannot get that race in. There is an obstruction I can't seem to get past. I would LOVE some good advice on this!!!
i dont know if someone has asked already but is there any way to get the bearing, and seal numbers? i cant find any bearing new numbers for my R160? i have the howeling sound while coasting so im doing axles clutch, and diff freshen up. thanks for any help!
This is a cool video to watch, but I would say that anyone that tries this on their own might want to be more precise. I wouldn't personally settle for that drive tooth pattern on something I was racing. Also, Im sure the hammer works, but I always install seal with a socket or other tool to keep them flat and even. And I always use a torque wrench on something with a metal gasket, its cheap insurance against leaks.
I have run into a problem where I am rebuilding mine, I do not have those end cap shims, how do I go about figuring out which sizes I need? I understand the basics of shimming and such, I just need to know what I need to do. Thanks
Great video on the 'How to', but the rear diff was giving you problems. Did I miss the part of 'this is whats wrong with it'? Replacing bearings and seals - nice, but nothing was shown if the bearings were bad. All parts were reused.
"just didn't catch it on camera" You don't know that he didn't remove them because it wasn't on camera. When asked to explain what kind of limited slip it was, he pointed at and described the clutch packs, but that wasn't actually inspecting them.
I have been looking for the Yukon side Bearing Puller used in this video. I was informed that the bearing puller I need is a YT P20 56034. I ordered one from Ebay and it never arrived. The only distributor that has one of these is Amazon. The price has now gone up a buck and I want to be sure this will work on a Subaru BAJA. VIN is 4S4BT63C556106467 . Or..do I need the YT P22? Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks Bill
From what was shown they took no initial pattern from the used gears to reset to. So they are going blind on the wear pattern hoping the gears wear back together without burning up. Truly a get R done shop.
25:11 This is the difference between a master and some graduate from UTI that only knows how to replace entire OEM stock modules by looking up part numbers.
@@occamsrazor1285 yeah , on euro-spec and us-spec there are only suretracs and torsens now...Last plated rear diffs was on STI-07 in euro /Us..... It´s posible they still got plated diffs on spec-C , the S-207 /S-208 and Type RA-R in Japan but not here
lifeisgood070 I don't know I think he kind of half-assed the rebuild. he didn't measure really anything... all he checked was the wear pattern and on the drive side of the wear pattern it could have been better for sure it was barely half of the gear.
Totally agree he never put the tools up to the gear. Granted in this case he probably got lucky and everything will be fine given the parts that were re-used. But if you were building or designing one there is way more stuff you should check. There is literally no way to know how hot this gear will get under load given the testing done. I've seen good gears with horrible backlash get some ridiculous temperatures.
lifeisgood070 he did check the backlash at 22:08 What is hard to express on film is experience. Dude has been rebuilding rear ends for more years than most of the commenters have been alive. Yes could he set up a dial indicator, but the end result is going to be the same. He just has done it enough to feel it.
lifeisgood070 I agree with Tracy Allen, this guy relies on a lot of experience. He gave it a wiggle and was like this is good, I'm sure he is correct but I'd love to see a dial indicator. The driveside wear pattern looked a little off center but I guess he explained that it was just a worn gear. I think experience is valuable, I've tried cooking where my mom did a pinch of this and heat for a a few minutes while I followed the recipe to a tee and hers was noticeably better.
This guy knows what he's doing. Although he is very careless and a bit rough in the proces. It looks like he doesnt care. I would prefer someone who's a bit more careful with my stuff.
The experience that Paul shows is amazing. He should have his own show. I'd watch it every day.
This man has some experience. Makes this look so easy.
True dat, joy to watch humble experts who are willing to share their knowledge.
Always good to watch a professional at work, a job for a craftman.
Thanks for the upload,
It's good to see someone who genuinely can explain and detail his work

This guy just taught me how to rebuild my diff in 30 minutes. I wish this video existed when it blew up and I bought a new one.
This man is a treasure and need to be saved.....sounds like he would be an amazing teacher for an apprentice.
This guy is a god
i love this man .....i wish he was my neighbor
really, he's like a master chef deboning and filleting a salmon lol
I agree .... I wished he was near me (Croydon {UK})......
Old pro...and it certainly seems like good guy.

Thank you man for this video, now I rebuild my R160 but more accuracy 😂❤
Something satisfying about watching a master going about his business.

Now I know a good shop is only about 4 hours from Seattle. Definitely going to hit him up to rebuild my r180. Nice video!
only take 29 min
That was an artist at work.Thanks so much for sharing.
This video works for the R160 as well. Everything is the same in positioning and installation. Except the carrier bearings go a bit further than past the flat. I used the old bearing to finish the press. Same with the front diff, as they are the same bearings.
Blaze Townsend I’m having trouble getting the top roller bearing down to race any tips
Now get the hell out of my shop.
...I've got a Wilford Brimley Look-Alike Contest to go win!
This mechanic is on a whole other level
Thanks, currently have the r160 open diff out of my 17wrx and this helps with reconstruction. The pinion (smaller) spider gears lost a few teeth as seems to be common failure point.
That guy knows what he's doing!
This is really great! Thanks for the upload. Gives me the confidence to rebuild my car's diff.
This is extraordinarily informative!
Well I'm about to step into the shop and try to do all my r180 diff bearings. Wish me luck.

wtf was the outer race of the new pinion bearing used to press against the rollers....?! 5:11
Front and rear bearing preload
For new bearing:
18.6 - 25.5N (1.9 2.6 kg.) 4.2- 5.7 ib)
With Spring balance at companion flange bolt hole.
Info from service manual for 1997 subaru impreza only.
Drive Pinion Nut Torque Specs.
Start low and increase to achieve preload.
181 - or + 15 N-m (18.5 - or + 1.5 kg-m), 134 - or + 11 ft-lb)
1 inch lb of torque is 12 ft-lb, so 4 inch pound of torque as shown in preload video is equivalent to 48 ft-lb
No torque procedure or specs for those side plates that hold the axle seals??
Where did you get your parts from? Was there a kit or did you have to buy each part from Subaru?
no mention of pinion shim.
4 in-lb for preload doesn't sound right
Do you have list all parts you need for rebuild your rear differential
How do you get the middle pinion bearing race in?
It is not very clear. I am doing my R160 AP Suretrac rear diff. I cannot get that race in. There is an obstruction I can't seem to get past. I would LOVE some good advice on this!!!
Never mind. I made a mistake.
i dont know if someone has asked already but is there any way to get the bearing, and seal numbers? i cant find any bearing new numbers for my R160? i have the howeling sound while coasting so im doing axles clutch, and diff freshen up. thanks for any help!

And I always use a torque wrench on something with a metal gasket, its cheap insurance against leaks.
For sure, the shown rebuild is efficient for race car use. But its not sufficient for long term use... too inaccurate
That is some years and years of skills
THE GOD DAMN YODA OF DIFF REPAIRS !
He's a magician I tell you
The only time I hammered on bearing races I was installing (in my center differential). ....I deformed the races and I ended up with bearing noises.
I have run into a problem where I am rebuilding mine, I do not have those end cap shims, how do I go about figuring out which sizes I need? I understand the basics of shimming and such, I just need to know what I need to do. Thanks
Thanks for the professional rundown on a rebuild.
Good old Master!
your channel deserves more subs! great vids man
what a great video bro!
Any chance you found give me a part number for that bearing puller you used on the carrier, i need that in my life like now lol
Very useful. Thank you very much, Paul

Great content,
Did you buy a rebuild kit or did you buy each piece individually from the dealer?
How come the clutches in the lsd weren't checked or replaced?
He did look at them, just didn’t catch it on camera.
"just didn't catch it on camera"
You don't know that he didn't remove them because it wasn't on camera. When asked to explain what kind of limited slip it was, he pointed at and described the clutch packs, but that wasn't actually inspecting them.

I have an 02 outback 6 cylinder and need a differential . Can I use one from a 4 cylinder outback or any suggestoons
This is so wholesome
Where can I find side bearing retainer for 1978 280z
is the suretrac front diff really not a good option for tarmac?

how much did this service cost you? parts included??
Why would you not change the clutch pack on the lsd? This guy is a bit careless the way he hammers and throws everything around.
Isn't there an o-ring on either side on top of the shims?
This guy would be a great dentist
That guy's a boss
Lovely! Thanks allot bro.

very very good job
Guys a boss!
What a pro!
How much did it cost for the rebuild?
What ratio is that diff
Where can I find such a noble and wise mechanic
Is this the suretrack / torsen diff that are mounted in a STI 2016 ?
This is from an 05 drivetrain.
