Do I grind? I wish I had pics, but I was running late to get to work. I really need someone that has done this before on a Sals split case. I have confirmed the PN several times. This is kind of hard to explain.
I have the whole diff halves a part and cleaned. The diff halves are 60% height (ring side) and 40% height (opposite size), where the cross sits.
The stock cross has a machined edges on each end and the cases have a smaller diameter where the cross sits at each end. The Detriot Locker doesnt have machine ends on the cross. The main bores where the crosses sit are the same size as are the cross shaft diameters.
To get the DL cross to fit I will have to grind the ring side of the case to the thickness of the diameter of the cross so it will drop into the 60 side of the case or should I machine the DL cross ends? I am leaning toward grinding since its not much to grind.
