Technician A says that side-bearing preload limits the amount the differential case is able to move laterally in the axle housing. Technician B says that adjusting backlash sets the depths of the mesh between the ring and pinion gears’ teeth. Who is correct?
Tech A says that if a noise is caused by a set of worn gears, it will normally be loudest in that gear while driving under a load. Tech B says that if the bearings on the input shaft, countershaft, or main shaft are worn, either front or rear, a growling noise will result when stopped in gear. Who is correct?
