Someone sent me a document a while back on how to do a 53-55 rear end service, and now I can't find it. Does anyone know of this document?

A while back I put together a document that pulled together quite a bit of the Packard service information on the subject of rear axle bearing maintenance including the shimming process. That would be applicable to the rear axles that featured a single tapper bearing per axle and thrust block. That document did not address maintenance of the differential . . . as in setting the pinion bearing fit, or gear lash. If you think the axle bearing maintenance document will help, I’ll dig-out a copy.
