not sure yet.. it was stuck to the cover. its not on the ring is all I know.
Got my jeep road worthy and took it out to a field to set the fuel ijection and do a few full throttles etc. Noticed the Clunking, like a skip (hmmmm). so off with the cover and it was semi welded to the diff cover haha.
Ill pull it all tomorrow
Who sells a good locker/RP/install combo Cheap!?

Owl, you've got an LT1 correct? What size tires are you running? Are you following what I'm saying? Ok, I'll just blurt it out- IT'S TIME FOR A 60. Why blow money on a 44 that's gonna blow again behind that much pony power? 60's are cheap and plentiful. I already know all the reason's for not doing it, but is it really worth it to keep replacing gears is my question.

:helpme:
Dont have the cash. A 44 isnt too too bad.
If I could find one setup already ( I dont have welder access).
for a good price I would do it.
I think most of my breakage issues are due to bad angles which have now been fixed.
