2x carrier bearing rtc3095 1 x pinion bearing 539707 1 x pinion bearing 539706 1 x seal ftc5258 , if you use timken bearings pinion height should remain correct ,set diff carriers bearings properly by adjusting all backlash just out with one bearing adjuster and putting 4-6 thou back with the other`

remove backlash with the adjuster on crownwheel side other must be loose , the adjust the other to put backlash back that means bearings are then correctlt preloaded and backlas is correct , bearing caps are sided so mark before removal
