Hey Justin, did you have to change the side bearing shims at all? I'm assuming not by the video. I'm actually installing the diff into a 3.91 rear diff from an IS350 which is the same as in the BRZ, and when re-installing the LSD the shims seem a bit too tight. I'm afraid if I drive the one into place with a drift I won't be able to get the diff back out. I pressed the bearings on and they are definitely pressed on all the way.

The stock non-LSD in the unit wasn't too hard to remove it just kind of fell out so my I ordered 4 smaller shims, 2 for each side and then I'll measure the backlash.

Now that I'm writing this I should really just measure the width of the two units and figure out if there really is a width difference or not.
