OK, so let me try to answer all of your questions...
*Yes, the inserts are metal. The are impregnated into the plastic with a channel.
*The tolerances were fixed so the 4 tiny shims are no longer needed.
*The gasket was updated and is a new material and thicker for much better sealing.
*The screw holes for the 4 screws that hold it together are tighter for less stripping.
This is a whole new mold and case. Getting these tolerances right was crucial to the overall handling of the truck. Sorry for the delay, I have been working on these for months now.
I have over 100 runs on the 3 in my truck now and zero leakage. They are butter smooth and have been from day one. I have many others running them with all smiles so far.
They should be through QC in the CA warehouse and be shipping by Tuesday.

Will this new diff get rid of most the slop in the outdrives?

Oh and the new diffs are awesome. And yes Ryan and been working hard on these for a long time to get them right guys. It has been a process.

Stock gears will fit right into this cases, with the exception of the tiny shims between the gears and the square block?
Thanks!

We no longer need to seal the inserts like we have been advising for a few months as these inserts are now molded into the case instead of pressed in like before. The new gasket is improved for better seal there and the screw holes were improved for better screw bite and more holding strength to get a good gasket compression. There were a lot of little things improved to make these much better.

so the blocks on the diff pins are still needed, just not the shims?
