Well i finally took the cover off of the old 10bolt that i broke back in april-
my ring and pinion is fine, lol

the spider gears are all f'd up, among other things.

It kinda looks like somebody dropped a handgrenade in there and tightened the diff cover down

i pulled the cover off and dumped it out, parts and springs and stuff came out into the drain pan

I'm in the same boat, I give him a year maybe less with all his off track stuff. I figure a year on my rebuild.

no way in hell the new ten bolt lasts more than 6 months. 3 months, like tim said, is probably pretty close.

nice job, at least you had fun doing it

I have a couple coffee cans full of broken 10-bolt parts, one for each rear I blew!!!
