They ****ed up your rear, end of story. It appears that you have a myriad of things that are not right. Might be something like not torquing the carrier caps down enough and everything moved around.

Who knows. But they need to step up. You may catch hell for opening it up.

They removed it pinion nut with an impact and put it back on with an impact. But replacing a pinion seal wolnt mess anything up.
I provided all the parts all new except the eaton posi I bought which I bought lightly used off of deadtrend1. The shop had to swap the spiders out of the old one because the new one was the wrong spline. Hes saying the spider gears failed because they are used.

They used parts out of the known broken diff? And charged money for this service?

Wasn't it their idea to take the spiders out of your broken diff and install them in the one you bought from Tim?

Called another shop and they want $900 to reset the gears and install new bearings. They seem to think the pinion bearing is shot from him swapping the pinion seal and putting the pinion nut back on with a gun...the 9in housing is slightly more then that so you can probably guess what route Im going...after the way the guy talked to me on the phone I realized it would just end up in a screaming match.

Nope, bearing kit. Its a shop I trust, and hes ALWAYS expensive the reason I did not go to him in the first place. He said the pinion bearing is probably burnout from the other shop putting the pinion nut on with an impact gun and screwing up the bearing preload/crush collar.

You watched him put the nut on with a impact or did he tell you he did? Did he warn you not to use the old spider gears?
