I hear ya. I too don't want a 80E unless that is my only recourse if I ever reach that level.
3 sides to every story? I heard that in a blues song.

I thought the Level 5 uses billet on just 1 of the shafts. It does, it's an optional upgrade. BTW, when I stated other factors (meaning my worn G80 rearend taking out my '89's built tranny), the input shaft was what destroyed the whole trans when it snapped in 1/2 & wedged in tranny.

4.8T, I don't need to see vid, but since u offered. 1 inside cabin plus whatever u like. I also like vids.

Did you get the SSS tcase in? I remember you saying it needed one because the weight transfer at the track was causing an issue. Just curious if it helped as much as you were hoping.
