Powertrax No-Slip install tips?
Just wondering if anyone has any pearls of wisdom about installing the No-Slip. I have read everything I can find on TS but figured I would still ask. I have the unit here and the instructions are quite generic. Also I have noticed some discrepancies between the install manual and TS member accounts.
The manual does not say you need to remove the ring gear, but everyone here says you do. Heck the manual doesn’t even have you taking the 3rd member off, you just remove the diff cover – not really going to work with a Tundra which doesn’t have a cover!!!!
Also what about the thrust washers? Dyogium says you should reuse them, but he was installing a Lock-Right and not a No-Slip. Should you reuse them for the No-Slip?
My father is going to help. Should I ask him to bring his compressor and air tools or can it be done with a ½ socket set and BFI (Brute Force and Ignorance!)?
Any other hints that would make this an easier task???
Any other parts that I need that are not directly related to the No-Slip that I might forget to get? Any new seals or anything?
I really appreciate any advice.
TIM
