Pop out your centre, pop off the crownwheel, split the hemi apart and install thicker shims for the plate pre-load.

Cheers, ok im only young so i dont have the wise old head on me just yet but have a pretty good understanding and mechanically minded so you recon do it or pull it out and have someone do it? And also does this work alot better than a standard? Cheers guys

I'd say it'd be just as much work if not more than fitting a airlocker if you were to do it wouldn't hurt to have torque wrench locktight and a dial gauge will help even tho i've seen them done after a few beers by hand and is still going strong over 30 000-40 000 K's ago. For the work involed i'd say it's trying to push sh*t up hill
