That pinion gear looks like it's taken a bit of hammering in the past.

Top work on the pics/write up as usual.

Any particular reason why you need/want longer studs?

The pictures actually make it look worse then it is, both the crown and pinion have quite good, and even wear

Nope, just that they came with the driveshaft kit lol

Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of inside the diff case, but you all know how that goes..

It has a while under decel, possibly due to the high preload we set

It's hard to compare it power wise because I forgot how it felt before, so I can't wait to get back on the dyno and see if these FG cams make a difference, and if I can keep the head down

Thanks again guys

Sweet as a mofo Joe :)

That back end must feel very firm and precise now hey ?

How much pre load did you set ?
