I did this shave with a 410s and left a heavy 1/4" of clearance between the ring gear and the case.

The only problem i had with this was i cut into the retaing clip for the baffle inside near the 3rd on one side.
My question is do you need to keep these or can i throw away with out any worries??
from what i hear is you need it to keep the oil in diff from sloshing from one side to the next

I have done a few toy diffs without the baffles with no problems...
