That was a deal killer, so went on down the road to see about parts (Bearings2seals) to do it myself. The price was $250.00 total for parts and figure it would be a 2 day job for myself.

Then my third option, went on to 4Wheel Parts and they could do it in a day without the stress of me doing it right the first time for $700.00.

It's my daily driver and putting on the currie control arms, made me have second thoughts on the warranty route :doh:

PS; Thought of using the cut out gasket maybe the reason for the bolts working themselves free. RTV from here on out

Can't learn if you don't do it... It's not an impossible feat they do it every day, do your research and if it's not a daily driver go for it.

I own the tools and the knowledge. I would say it's near impossible to do right without the right tools and I'm not talking about hand tools.

Yeah, just being allen bolts without rtv, the flexing of the differential housing was backing the bolts out, This is why I was thinking Blue Loctite.
