While rebuilding my front suspension i thought it would be a good idea to change the leaky inner axle seals on my D60. I tried running a rag between the ring and pinion gears to pop the carrier out (a trick I read about on another forum that I do not recommend) but it it started coming out unevenly and put the carrier bearings in an ugly bind, possibly damaging them. So now I would like to change the carrier bearings. If I built a case spreader would I be able to just replace the bearings and use the existing shim set? Or is this now something that I need to take into the shop and have backlash and everything else checked/set? Thank you.
