Well I'm not going to keep going here and risk another childish war like I've seen too often. I was merely indictaing the way the Ford recommends to do the job right. I'm a HD Mechanic at the local Ford store so for "what it's worth", this is what we do for every differential rebuild.

Right, FMS gears install with the original shims 95% of the time so that can be easy to do.

Many people who are "at home" mechanics or beginners do not have dial indicators, torque wrenches, etc., in their posession. Just trying to give a little warning here.
