tcox 'Bolter T Joined: Aug 2010 Posts: 255 East Tennessee	Is it possible to adjust ring gear backlash without removing the whole assembly? Noticed I have about .040 in my 38 stock rear. Wondering if I can loosen carrier caps and adjust the locknuts. Any advice would be great. 1938 Chevy 1/2-Ton In the Stovebolt Gallery More pix on Photobucket
