I'm having issues with my new Detroit Truetrac and 4:88 gears. After the axles are installed and the "C" clips are in place an axle spacer is inserted between the axles. A retaining cylinder is then installed and held in place with a snap ring.
The problem is with the 4:88 gears I don't have room to insert the retaining cylinder. Should I grind the ring gear or the retaining cylinder for clearance? Grinding the gears a little are common on the Detroit locker but with the Truetrac I think the grinding could lead to a ring gear failure. Have any of you experienced this before? Thanks
