    i fished out the gear along with all the metal shavings before i took the pics. . . I'm just gonna get a spider gear kit and put a bearing kit in right away since all those metal shaving were all up in there

    Are you pulling the whole rear apart? Is a minor install kit what you're buying to install? + the spider gears

    I guess what I'm saying is if your pulling the carrier and pinion be careful and follow proper procedure pinion preload, pinion depth, backlash, torque specs etc etc. Need any help with that lemme know
