Mitch, if troy thinks 5 front, 7 middle and 2 or 3 rear, I would stick with that. He knows the track and knows whats best there. If I was coming up there to race, troy would be the person I would go to for a good bae setup. Was a great idea on your behalf to start to look at things like wheel bearings. Well done champ.
Front diff comes out the same way as rear, so you can undo the bottom bulk head screws, remove the top front bulk head screws, undo the front sway bar if you have it, then everything should pull out easy. As for the centre, if you undo the 4 screws that hold the 2 piece centre diff cradle (just look at the cradle from the top and you will see them just inside the top alloy plate) then you will be able to pull the whole cradle out in 1 piece. Then undo 2 of the top alloy plate screws on one side then you will be able to pull 1 side of the cradle off and pull the centre diff out. Catch up with troy or Jason if you have an issue.

Have fun bud.

Cheers

Mike

I usually find something suitable like the end of a thin butter knife (dont use one thats quite thick) in and do it up until its snug, when you pull the butter knife out, it should leave about .5 of a mm gap allowing the disc to spin without binding between the pads until you hit the brakes. I know it sounds like a strange thing to use to set it, but it works like a treat.
