The Getrag differential used in the Solstice doesn't appear to have the set up as you described, or use a collapsible drive pinion gear spacer.

you're right. did alittle more digging and found out it's a shim pack set up. The preload will be reset with the proper torque on the pinion nut. (this system is relatively new). Preload will be reset as long as none of the parts were changed.
thanks for your help
note: just about every RWD truck on the road today uses a colapsible spacer. some are playing with the shim pack or properly termed "solid spacer" design though.
