I just working on semi float rear axle (Fj40, 76). PO have installed some gasket between pats 7 and 8 (see picture)
Do we need any gasket there?
Also basic questions about differential pinion and gears.
When I rotate a axle shaft (on unloaded differential) do pinion and main gear should rotate too?
When I rotate pinion, I can stop shaft rotation by hand without any force, it is normal?
Why gear not transmit any torque on unloaded differential?
I do watch many video and read manual,.. but still not find any answer
