As the title says, How important is it to have the right preload on the diffirential, and what would the side effects be off having it incorrect, thanks

From what I have read, preload is a huge factor in determining the behavior of a differential. Lots of preload will make it lock up easier, while less will let it "do the differential thing" a little easier, making it more friendly to turn-in and such.

I'd like to learn more from those more knowledgable.
