mmh

some people have lots of diff problems, while others have rock solid ones... I would do a full rebuild if I were you... I've run mine with a normal-to-stiff slipper setup and the diffs would hold fine. a diff that's slipping uncontrollably is typically a diff that's got graphite lube on the main balls...
