Mark, problem is the spider gears are impossible to get ahold of. If you have two good obes in your diff now, don’t blow them! Better to only need two more than four of them!!

I agree ANT on the spider gears getting your hands on them a guy in here was using a c6 gears are cutting some down & making them work. He wanted like 1200.00 for all the work but his gear cutting looked like **** to me so went with the wavetrac in my car. IT IS CRAZY TRYING TO FIND THESE GEARS. Robert
