-==Overview==
-Setting up a differential correctly when changing the ring gear and pinion is often thought of as being a difficult task. Because of the perceived difficulty, this is something that is often farmed out.
-The truth is, provided there is access to the tools needed, there is no reason the average wrench cannot successfully do this job themselves. Of course you need to have guidance, patience, and the desire to see the job through, as well.
-==Manuals and guides==
-In the case of the GM 10-bolt and 12-bolt differentials, the factory overhaul manual has a very good section dealing with setting up the rear end after a ring gear and pinion swap. The only thing about using the manual is in some cases it calls for specific GM tools- tools that may not be available to the average do-it-yourselfer. Not to worry, though. Nothing that the manual calls for cannot be duplicated or substituted, using other tools or methods.
