Took the mounting bracket off the drivers side of the diff that theyvwere nice enough to send me a spare, and checked the backlash and make sure there were no problems with teeth or bearings, everything seems good to go, smart move will be to just wait until i install the lift to swap this in....

The plugs were fouled but no caked oil, which usually intakes a ring issue .. the plugs are sitting about the way they came out of the engine, 4 on the left in the pic are the 4 from the passenger side , the other 4 are as one would expect are out of if the driver side

And my quick 15 minute alignment after i was finished just to get it home... really want to increase the caster a little bit and bring the camber to about .5 on both sides... the factory tires were wearing on the outer edges... especially the right front... but the only adjustment i had really needed to make was the right toe which ended up at +0.90
