You could try using some 5mm shims between the circlip and the bevel gear to keep the diff together, or find some thin shims eg plastic or metal washers with 11mm diameter and >5mm inner hole that you can fit/superglue to the bearing housing to take up the clearance, or use putty or superglue/baking soda to build up the bearing recess to hold the bearing in the right place.

Hahahahaa gotta laugh... i have dealt with him heaps and really minimal problems... BUT...!! i asked him to change an order once politely and he obliged but he accidently took the wrong item off, I advised and asked him to correct it, and it went downhill fast from there.. I did get ALL the items in the end and I ended up with stuff I didn't want but he acted like an ignorant clown after I had shown him the mistake he made, and now he has BANNED me as well lol... worries me my brother just buys what i want from his store cos lets face it for that market he is the best even though the few mistakes are tolerable usually.. but I agree with some of you that the customer is always right...! I deal in sales and have to suck it every week and even when the customer is wrong the customer is RIGHT...!!! =-P
