I've got the rear cover off, and going to start removing the differential this weekend. Going to install 3.73 gears with new bearings, and a posi. Does anyone have the tool to spread the pumpkin the required .003"?

Stick a bar in the section that holds the clutch packs. Put a racket on the nut that holds the yoke. Turn the nut back and forth watch it wiggle out its magic.
An old timer taught it to me when i put a trac lok in my Mark VIII!
