Hi. I am wondering why the XA B C diffs have the 10 mm spacer on the axle retainer plate snd the bearing

Thanks for any answers.

@gerg is this the issue you had with your diff? disc/drum difference

I have a BW78, this is regarding a 9-inch, which I have never owned or worked on.

I would say, it's probably for the old style "wide" bearings. Dont think many people use them anymore, the side loads when cornering wore them out prematurely, I believe. Not 100% sure, The 9" s that I have used, shortened, fitted all had the thinner bearings, and standard axle plates.
