Whats happening to it? does the clip keep coming out?
The flat bit should be away from the screw, so when you put it in the rounded side will go in first

Flat side of the circlip should be away from the thrust race, not close to it.

the diff works, but its very tight. not only that but its slipping.
and i cant tighten all the way without it stripping

How about the nut retainer, is it fully into the outdrive? mine didn't go straight in but with a gentle tap it soon slid straight in, also are you using kit balls or ceramic?

a lot of previous manuals I've followed say to compress the spring. I was quite surprised not to see this step in the 210's manual so I didn't compress it

I did it out of habit just like i compressed the slipper spring as well , like you say the manual didn't mention it but then the manual didn't mention anything about setting the diff up , for a newbie this must have been very confusing & not everyone has access to this great forum for advice, i have asked durango to include it in the online manual but have not heard back from them about it

Getting the clip inside is a problem in itself. It has been proven many times in the past that using the right tool for the right job makes the difference between failing and succeeding.

So I tried to get a hold of circlip pliers with beaks/pins small enough to fit inside the holes. Guess what? I've been two four or five stores, been riding on me bicycle for two hours, without result! I tried a DIY shop first, which had circlip pliers, but too large. Then I went to a few specialist stores, and they all didn't have this size available, all for larger circlips, even if they did have the same size of circlip available that's used in the diff!

What's next? Well, I was directed to Fabory, but to buy a tool of 20+ euros for a single circlip seems a little steep for me (that's the lowest price they'll sell it for at Fabory, if they even have it). Therefor, I bought some cheap-o pliers with small, round beaks, and the Dremel will hopefully do the rest.

Similar to that, I bought a small nail scissors and dremeled the ends slightly to fit the clip

Problem already solved Here it is:




This mod took... 5 minutes? First time I've butchered a tool, but the result is actually better than I expected. 4.95 euros well spent!

That's fair enough Mikey but i still think it should be in the manual as not everyone will look on the web or even be able to get on the web
Just my opinion & they dont have to take it if they dont want to
