Differential Scattered!!!
One of the bearings in the Differential came apart and ate the center section of my 9 Inch. I have the original build sheet for this truck and noticed that it had a 3.25/1 gear in it from the factory and when they opened it, someone had replaced it with a 3.50/1. Well I had the differential rebuilt with a new gear set and new bearings and seals. I cant hardly believe its the same truck. This thing is so quiet going down the road now. That bad gear was making so much noise. Anyway its really turning into a great driver.
