So guys my car was getting a bad vibration on deceleration so I jacked up the car to see if it was the drive shaft. The drive shaft was fine but the drivers side axle had moved out of the diff about an inch further then it should be. I just had the diff rebuilt a few months ago. I pulled the axle out and the clip at the end of the axle looks messed up. Does anyone know were I can get new clips ford doesn't have them.

i found out the problem. just so everyone knows the spider gears on a 28 spline diff carrier for the irs are different than for a sa. there is a grove cut in them for the circlip to sit in and that retains the axle inside the carrier. so instead of swapping the spiders im going with a Detroit true trac. cant wait to see how it performs
