Getrag 3:73 diff break in procedure
After I did the first initial on 10 minutes warm up then topped off dif then I drove it for 17 miles I did six figure eights then let the car sit for 50 minutes while I eat at Applebee's My worry is on my way to the next stop was 35 miles in that process I did turn the cruise control on for up to eight or nine miles at different speeds such as 58 and then I switch it to 59 and switch it to 60 on and off for 23 miles till I got Around the Mall of America and then I parked for 45 minutes my procedure manual from DRM did not say anything besides to make 30 to 40 mile break-in period then let cool nfg 390 or higher gear ratio to not go over 55 I never went over 62 since did 373 well I did this the temperature today was mid sixties and cloudy next stop was 44 miles then sat 35 min since cold wind then did 2 more 35 mile cycles sorry for that long paragraph but I just want to make sure that everything was broken in safely the car drove and sounded and ran fine but does any one think it hurt my new diff
