I should add that the floating axle is NOT under any pre-load. It is just held in place by the circlip holding it inside of the ball bearing. I guess that’s why they call it “floating”!! The ball bearing is a short distance behind the axel seal but on the inside of the flange. The pre-load is between the flange (the cast iron side piece) and the large single tapered bearing on each side of the differential assembly. The deferential assembly rides on the tapered bearings. It is a pretty cool design.
