Man, where did you get those gears?

Yeah, the powertrax is easy enough afterwards if I need to. I am going with the No Slip from what I have seen it is quiet and works better. Not sure if it is or not but I have to go off what others say. :roll:

ebay lol the guy has had them on there 2 other times but they never met the reserve so I never won and I wasnt in any hurry not that I am now either bc its still gonna be along time before I have enough money to get them installed and I still need the front and overhaul kits :roll:

I dont even know the difference between the two, now I gotta go read up on those and see what the difference is

Why the front over the rear if I can only do one? I've always thought that rear would be better. :?
less chance of breaking your front diff...extra traction equals less wheel spin...trust me...it has happend to me

Yeah, the more I thought about it the better the front sounds to do first if I can't do them both together. Cheaper in the long run by far too. thanks.

DTT p/n # 912A314 open front diff D30a.

PowerTrax No-Slip p/n # 92-0382-2905 open rear diff (8.25)

I've got a friend checking to see if he can beat the best prices I've found through his supplier.

Will do. I'm hoping he can.

fwiw, he quoted me $52.90 @ for (new) complete CV axle assy , + $6.00 core @. Cardone Industries brand. I'm thinking maybe I should jump on that just incase.

Yeah, I saw the prices @ RockyRoad for CV's and thought to ask him. This guy is in wholesale autoparts. and his brother one of my riding buddies is a Corvette (dealership) mechanic. Who has about the most amazing home garage I've ever seen.

I'll PM you when I get an answer hopefully tomorrow (or today), wow, gotta hit the sack. Surprised the wife hasn't complained. later.

Not as far as I know, when I bought it I asked them if it had it cause I wanted it. They said they had yet to get one with it in it on the lot. Gad I didn't get it now though.
