And yes that other illustration is totally different I agree.

i deff take your opinion very seriously
esp as a diff mechanic.

but as a 19yr old on a budget i think ima run it.
i have already found my ford 9in with gears and detroit locker pre installed so that will be bought this weekend and dropped in on the 16th of april.
so it will be driven literally less then 100 miles probly. i just need to get to work and back like 8 more times.

i will be sure to test gear pattern to make sure theres a good amount of contact. but i think with some thick oil itll run fine. like u said maybe good to go for life but im not gonna stay on it for long.
and deff nothing off the road.
