Well I finally am on x-mas break from nursing school, and decided to work on my lil project (94 camaro) some more. I went into the garage to find that both my spider and side gears + shaft and clips, were in a plastic baggie where they were in the rear end before! My dumb dad (car is stored in his second garage so I can tinker) said he got bored and decided to clean the rear end out and the gears for cracks and chips. Well I have "clean" gears now, but I cant get all the gears back in the way they were. I can get the 2 big side gears and clips on, no biggie, but I cant get all of them to fit in at the same time! AARGH! I thought about going to all the trouble of removing the carrier, but I turned the thing around and looked at it carefully, I dont think that would give me much more room or make it any easier. Maybe I should just buy a richmond mini-spool and save the trouble, I need help here guys. Any help would be appreciated with the order that the gears go in, or any hints/techniques. Or just give a vote for mini-spool, lol.

Well thanks anyway guys, but after a hour or so of chocolate binging, ( hey im skinny I can do that! ) I finally figured how to install the spider gears without removing the carrier. It's actually fairly simple, but hard to explain. If anyone wants info on how to do this, just ask and I'll explain. Bye's!
