Like I said though, I know people that run them this way for a long time. I think if they were hearing any noises coming from it, however, they would pull them immediately so not to cause any of the potential damage.

There has been some slight rattling/pinging like I said in another post that I have noticed since the DS issue has been brought to my attention, so I will for sure be removing it. Almost wish I saw this a little earlier, or perhaps last week... because I am having work done to the differentials and I believe the DS's are going to have to be removed, so it would have been a perfect time to just swap the bad one out and put the new one in.... issue is, if I was to order today, I don't think I'd be able to have it by friday for my install early monday morning.
