Differential Backlash

Post by littleblackflash »

I've brought a 3.9 diff from Ebay and it arrived today. The teeth on the pinion and crownwheel look really good but....

When turning the input shaft, I and feel some backlash. Is this normal? I guess its about 2deg rotation before the crownwheel moves.
