i bring this thread up because something serious happend to my gerabox (see pictures). I guess this didn't happen out of the blue since I installed a limited slip differitial 2 yeras ago. In my opinion i was doing/meassuring every thing right for the shims S1 and S2 and checking afterwards backlash, which turned out to be OK. S3 and S4 stayed untouched since i was not dealing with the pinion shaft. On the other hand it can not be a coincidence to work on gear&pinion and having this damage afterwards.
What do the experts say ? Is this damage typical for tampering S1 and S2 while mountig the diff ?
