i just finished putting my 85' land cruiser centre back together(fitted in hilux) and i was just wondering if the pinion bearings and carrier bearings should have pre load or end float,i made up a solid pinion spacer so the pinion had about 0.001 end float,the carrier had about the same.but since then ive been told that it should have pre load.what do you think?thanks

i knew you would say that,bugger!!!.
do you think it will be a problem having end float?(not sure if i can be bothered pulling it out again!)

the end play will act just like a worn out bearing causing vibration and killing the bearing. it isnt that much work to pull the diff out and set it up right
