Hey Tamino, good luck with the install...
Are there alot of Jeeps in Russia???? send some photos of the rigs over there...

 

...interestingly so were mine, the thinner shims were of the correct circumference, but the thicker shims were too big in circumference. Not a problem if you have a driveline shop near by that can find you some kicking around their shop.

That's backwards.
The carrier shims on both the JK Dana30's and 44's are on the outside of the bearings, meaning no need to press and pull carrier bearings to set backlash. They are wedged between the housing shoulder and bearings themselves...they're just a bit of a pain to keep in place when installing the carrier

and the crush sleeve is a BI**H yes, much more than 200lb/ft to crush....but did it myself on jack stands, you just need something sturdy to hold pinion flange still. I found the proper Millar pinion flange wrench but another member here constructed a beautiful tool of his own to hold it still....
A professional installer used a torque wrench to crush that sleeve Seeing as how the sleeve can take well over 250lb/ft to crush, that will usually exceed your typical torque wrenchs' highest setting...a great way to destroy it as he found out.
Use a power bar and a snipe to crush the sleeve until the appropriate torque to rotate pinion is achieved with an INCH POUND torque wrench.

 

Agreed....but there's nothing average about some of us

Some people simply just don't have the time to install their own gears, that's probably the main reason some wont do it. It is a time consuming procedure...not like changing bumpers or putting a BB lift in, some precision measurements are required.
But I just wanted to throw it out there so that others know that if you really want to, and you don't know how, you can learn and install your own gears properly...does it deserve some level of respect as far as do-it-yourself jobs go...sure...but not that much, I mean hell...I did it
and as the saying goes....If I can....well, you know
