Do I need to wire brush or polish off the edges if they are sharp or maybe damaged slightly on the R&P gear? So I need to just get a gear installation kit with bearings, crush sleeve, and what ever else comes with it?? Should I also go ahead and replace the axle shaft bearings? And when we did give a little go to it, only one tire spun. Would that mean the Equa-loc paper and steel need replacing or is that how that limited slip works? I don't want to get it all repaired and floor it only to smoke one tire all the way accross town but also I cannot aford a detroit locker so I guess oh well eh? If I could find the papers and steels I would definitely replace them just for the sake of replacing them.. Anyone know where to find these clutch papers and steels?
