I have rebuilt many Atlas and English axles for customers

Without the correct tool it is total guess work to set the pre-load on the pinion nut and NOT reccomended

As for the backlash and which shims are required this must only be done after the pinion pre-load is correct

Here is an English for my own car - different to Atlas but same equipment to set-up the diff
