YZ10 Diff assembly

Post by Mikeyboy »

Hi- I recently purchased a YZ10 and I am in the process of rebuilding it as a runner. I took the diff out and cleaned it up and was curious if it gets re-assembled like a Stealth diff? I basically tightened the diff bolt until it bottomed out and then backed it off about an 1/8th of a turn. Does this sound right?

No that doesnt sound right. It would take alot of typing to explain a proper rebuild. either someone will or use search. thats not being rude thats just a complicated long winded explaination

Did some searching, looks like about a 1/4 turn.

after a rebuild i would snug the bolt then install 2 allen keys into the outdrive slots and try to spin the gear .. if it moves keep tighting 1/4 turn at a time till you cant move it with your thum .. after that i would ajust the diffs at the track

tighten the slipper till it dosent slip .. ajust the rear diff till it dosent slip on take off .. then the same to the front the same .. after reset the slipper this is a good starting point

i beleve the set up calls for tighten and back off 1/4 but i find it flat spots the bearings and make the diff grity
