Much respect! He even de burred the bolts to get rid of stress risers….From a Super Stock racing Mopar guy to you…impressive!

That looks like a solid 4-6 hours of work at full tilt taking the time to ensure no bearings or races got the slightest damage in the process.....👍

Now if everyone stuck to procedure and policy like this a come back would never be a thing. I'm genuinely impressed. I thought I was a dying breed. Most people would have eyeballed that thing together and skipped the loctite. If I see you in public I'm going to buy you a beer.

Nice work! I have to admit, I’ve been doing gears occasionally for 30+ years as a professional tech, and it never dawned on me to use an impact to drive the pinion to check the pattern. I learn something new every day. Thanks!

Fantastic work: trust the guy that does it, not the one that claims they know how!

So nice to see the mesh actually checked and adjusted. So many people just slap them together and then wonder why the fail or get noisy

The correct tools make all the difference my man! 👍😁 My 1996 Toyota 4runner 3.4L I drained the rear gear oil at 190k miles. Waste of time, the oil that came out was just as clean as the new gear oil lol. Toyota differentials don't cook gear oil black like American cars and trucks do. Japanese engineering and machining.
