Solid spacer came in today,

Everything checked with a .002 feeler gauge.

Dry fit feels good.

side gears and pin will be here Monday.

So once again this is my first Chrysler, paper sez side adjusters should be snug enough to hold the carrier in place, loose enough that it can be pried out. Toyota side adjuster have a keeper.
How tight? I will have the tool.

Toyota adjusters are torqued to 100+ ft lbs. My hi pinion had the adjusters torqued to 150 ft lbs.

Chrysler's spec is like 75 ft lbs or so, if you are smart, you will double it. Solid pinion spacer and over torqued backlash adjusters are about the only way to make that axle somewhat reliable.

yep, that is what I am familiar with and a bolted on keeper for the side adjuster once you get it set.

My days with heavily-arched leafs are over. Good luck.

I know what a PITA it is to pull a torsion bar, so I welded a couple big nuts to a chunk of 1/2" pipe instead.

This is what I did and it works fine as suggested and is cheap as hell
