Has anyone tried making or sourcing thicker c clips for the GM 7.5?
Found my rear end had .150 thick c clips.
New Dorman clips were .155
Measuring the end play I could use a .165 and .170 to tighten things up nicely.
I've only found these, but the OD is too big for my f body diff

Sounds highly illegal
Yep. Gonna have to start checking C clips at Nats now. . .
Would be easy enough to have machined...Quote:

It will be around .176". This is in mild steel. If we go stainless the gauges are dead nuts. 7 ga is .187" and 8 ga is really not available except in small pieces from like McMaster-Carr. Very expensive. I'm guessing we could laser cut some from a sheet of 3/16" (.187") then have someone mill them down.
