Spacemane969 · 01-22-2018, 03:40 PM

Installing the whiteline differential mount in cradle bushings. Added the bottom vertical bushings and as I go to retighten the drivers bolt will not thread smoothly. Once I tighten it to max torque it still has about a 1/4 gap on the bottom washer. I don't know what to do..I've tried wiggling and repositioning the diff as much as I can but it doesn't solve anything. Is it possible the female threads are bent?
Thanks
