After I took the picture, I put another one in 2 grooves up towards the big end. I don't know if you really need two, but it made me feel better. And, so far, they have not torn.

I also use a torsion type diff. I started out with a standard Ford LSD. And for most situations that's just fine. But on the track you can feel the differance; it comes out of the corners a little stronger and with less push. On the street, it's better because the torque is more equally balanced. When I do a fun smoky burn out at the stop light, it tracks straight and true, no tail wagging.
