            you still running the 10 bolt axle?

            If so, treat it nice. I'm on my 2nd 10 bolt, just threw it in there for Woodward Dream Cruise basically, after that time for a 12 bolt or 9". I had 18s out back w/ 3.73 + shift kit, which probably accelerated the destruction of my original axle. (now same setup only 3:42)

            Just a heads up.

                          yea..$$ is covering seals and bearing and fluid as well (everything is oem parts). other guys on the site said its about what most shops would charge. but yes it is expensive for something that only has 25,000 miles on it!

                              I had mine (was a one tire fire) done with posi, same gears, but new seals, bearings, set up and filled with friction modifier for $400 on Telegraph and Joy. BTW I had mine done at 170k.
