Sprint Diff Bearing Shims
Does anyone know the OD & ID of the pinion bearing shims and the carrier shims for a Sprint?

Re: Sprint Diff Bearing Shims
I found some thin circular shims at Ted's, Mart; what do they look like?
Re: Sprint Diff Bearing Shims
I will measure them up tommorow for you.I have some I did not use in my axle rebuild.
Re: Sprint Diff Bearing Shims
Sorry for the late reply.The diff carrier shim is 50.8 o/d,and 39.6 i/d.I have made my own tool up to punch these out of shim steel.I have used the same size shim between the pinion and the first bearing onto the pinion shaft.(I think Robbers,list these).If you need to replace the collapsable spacer with a solid one.The o/d I have used is 33mm,and an I/d of 25.5(the shaft is 25.4).Hope this helps.
