I pulled the 10 bolt out of the purple car today. It has a freshly installed Thunder Racing gear package consisting of Strange 4.10 gears, Ratech Master rebuild kit (bearings, ect), and an Aluminum Girdle w/Thunder Racing engraved into the back portion. This setup cost me $1000 for purchase and installation less than 1000 miles ago. When the gears were installed, I had the shop go over the rear end and everything checked out fine. The gears have a bit of whine between 45-60 and that's it, I figure it's from the backlash which is set at the tight end of the spectrum. It has been torn apart and inspected and everything was wearing fine at teardown. BTW, the oil residue all over the rear is from the multitude of oil leaks common on the motor. The rear itself is NOT leaking. This is a 3 Channel ABS NON-TCS rear from a 93.
With the money I just dropped on it, I'm taking a pretty good hit. As such, I'm asking $500 for the rear end.
