SUPER video! Thanks. Loved your comment, actually stopped the video to take a picture... "Surgically Clean" I'm going to weld up your 'Archimedes lever'- beats chasing yer tail around the bench.
Excellent video! Couple of thoughts - the holes for the ARP bolts need to be chamfered because of the radius on the ARP bolts - I see you did that but didn't see it mentioned. I saw a tip to run a flat stone around the ring gear mating surface of the carrier to knock down any high spots around the bolt holes to avoid ring gear runout.
Hi Rick, I just saw your P 74 vet differential rebuilt in nine minutes. Amazing you truly are a master mechanic. Question; I have a 69 Corvette and just paid $6500 for a guy to rebuild the diff bearing hubs and training arms. I’m getting bearing noise from the rear and I noticed the diff has play on both sides. The bearings have very little to no play and the only plan I’m finding is at the differential where the half shafts connect. Is that normal?
Thanks! Ill make a not of that. As far as differentials Im not aware of any "kits" that are larger than factory. Mainly its the launches and dead hooking that would hurt it. Its decently stout for a factory IRS. The drag guys do a custom fit solid rear axle swap
WOW " What an amazing assembly and calculation of this build .
I've always wanted to learn this skill .
Great Job !
Glad you liked it!
If you've always wanted to learn. Why are you watching a first forward that shows nothing? Better off reading a book
Amazing work. Nicely done. And to think, I was considering giving that a go!
Nice work. Getting ready to do this job on mine. 😁
It's always better when it's your own vehicle 😁
You work very smart and neat.. Awesome video!
I try to do my best!
SUPER video!
Thanks.

Great video thanks brother. Don't you wish it was that easy and fast. Keep up the great work see you in the next video thanks again
Thanks brother! I appreciate the kinds words!
Excellent! I could see this being a music video for a metal band. Come on Rick, let's hear those pipes! ;)
I wish YT had some good Royalty free Metal. Ill see what I can find
Good video with attention to detail.
Thank you. In the about tab I have my email listed

thats a great video, thanks for the info..
Rick great job, do you have time to do my 75 vette rear end? i want to rebuild it, a 308 to a 355 are you close to Houston TX.
when u say " snap ring sharp edge facing in", do you mean in toward diff unit or in toward yoke????????
Towards the diff. The sharper edge has more surface area to hold it in from the pulling force when the suspension is unloaded
@@CamaroRick Thanks, makes since.
Nice, was it quiet when it was driven in the car?
great video
Thanks!
Recommended case spreader? All the ones I see online say that they won't work on a Corvette case.
You don’t need one just don’t put too much preload in the shims. You’ll have to move the races around a little bit
Great video as usual. And as usual I wish there was a version in normal speed!! One question, will a 8.5 inch gear fit in the Corvette case?

i agree normal speed and some narration@@CamaroRick
Is there an actual book on these, I have one on the bench now.
I mostly use autoshop software for my info but there are assembly manuals available for the original specifics.
Nice job but there needs to be a slowed down version for rookies to follow
Great video to show you can speed up the video lol...
It's not your first rodeo.
