Micro Polish Diff Gears
I am headed to DTE for a stage four diff and brace. They offer a micro polish of the diff gears. Do you know if it is necessary and what are the benifits? Thanks in advance for any info!
Seriously, I think it makes the gear engagement smoother, reducing wear and gear noise.

and less friction = less heat.
