I have been out of the forum thing for a while but i remember rick was pretty backed up and not able to fulfill orders very timely. Has he gotten caught back up? If not i would prefer to order from somewhere else. Thanks for the advice though, i will give this a try next.

I have a puddy mod diff and it has held up to track conditions including both Sebring and Homestead. On the dif every part is cryogenically thermo cycled, then new pinion bearings and seals are used to assemble. There is a one piece solid steel sleeve used instead of an OEM crush collar. The solid sleeve is made of 10/20 mandrel steel, it is seamless and will not compress under heavy stress like the OEM can. The PM sleeve is a custom made part to fit this rear; it is a one piece steel sleeve. The stock hardware is replaced with new 10.9 hardware. Backlash is set at 3 to 4 thousands giving a tighter gear to gear fit. Full Blueprint assembly of rear using precision accuracy to better than factory tolerances.

puddymod is a great guy. He builds excellent diffs and none has ever crapped out on anyone. Its expensive but he also buys your old diff for a couple hundred off. I was interested in building a diff through him and he shot me an pm with his number after seeing my constant posts around the forums asking for help about differentials. I talked to him on the phone and he was VERY helpful. Im currently still saving money up for his diff. He's still around and you should message him. He has pictures and details and prices that will meet your needs. i promise = )

S2kpuddydad's differential work has an impeccable reputation on this forum. He'll help you decide what you really need, and provide it.

Is this an additive or actual gear oil? Would I have to mix this with something?
