Default eaton is in

that was one of the easiest projects i have done, took 2-3 hours, the backlash checked out good with the factory shims. toms diferential sent me everything i needed.

test drive was very cool, i get a nice posi slide around corners and can cary it forever, i can hear that driver side wheel screaming at me now <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

hell yea parish i have had mine in for like a week now and it is awesome. sliding sidways, accelerating in the corners, and doing dounuts on dry pavement are great. i love it especialy when getting into trafic while turning i now have traction.

as far as the 500 mile breakin please. i took it easy for the first about 20 then let it have it. you would have to understand all the things i have broken im like a test pilot give it hell from the get go. if it breaks it is inferior. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
