Basic tutorial on what to look for when shimming a diff, this example was done on a 1/8th scale truggy diff but is applicable to smaller scale as well. Note: Every diff case can be different, some Ive had to use 3 shims, some none. Tekno RC, NT48.3, NB48 2.0, EB48 2.0, ET410 2.0, EB410 2.0

Could you possibly do a detailed video such as this one on shimming the outdrive gear or what would typically be called the axle gear in real life get in and drive car's rear-ends?

iam having a problem with my diff. with 1 shim, the mesh is too tight, so i feel the gears grinding all round. however when i shim it properly with 2 shims, now i dont feel the teeth, there is very little play, HOWEVER, in one spot the diff can barely turn. it basically feels like hitting a bump stop, but apart from that one spot it is smooth. what did i do wrong?
