RE: An idea I had today, tell me what you think about it

This is what I used to press on my pinion. Works great. Around $50 at Harbor freight. Works great for removing the gear also.

RE: Re: Backdraft 8E, Kaput...

Pretty simple to see why mine broke. I shimmed both diffs when I first bought it. Filled front/rear and center with diff lube also.
