So I put new spiders in the diff. a side note, the side bearings are press fit but are not very tightly pressed. I was able to drive off the large one with a screwdriver and it was pretty simple. the other side I just unbolted the ring gear and the side bearing stayed on the ring gear hub on that side and I drove the carrier off the ring gear basically. I did find that from the factory the thrust washer behind one of the spider gears was not lined up correctly and it had been jammed against the dowel and mushroomed into the spider gear hole between the rod and gear. This made it a little difficult to get the rod out to get the gears out and I had to file the thrust washer to get it to go back together nicely and without binding the spider gears but all good now. Also the manual was hard to find torque specs but it looked like the ring gear bolts get torqued to 19ftlbs I went to 21 and after that it seemed as though the bolts were either stripping or stretching so I didn't go any further. They don't seem very strong. again I'll do a write up on the r/r of the diff in the how to's later when I put it all back together. I bought a used complete diff for $240 that I am probly just going to put in and keep this as a spare because there is one pinion gear with a chip in it, I don't think it will affect anything as there is a lot of tolerance in these gear sets but I'll just use the known good and keep this as a spare. spiders and axle clips with shipping were $50. Gear set was over $300 so I opted not to do a ring and pinion gear set
