I need to pull it apart and see what is up. it does not feel "gritty" per say, it just feels weird. Kinda wavey. I was good at first, but now feels off. I also used TKO sanded rings and ceramic diff balls on this build. Like I said, I am on the fence. I would really like the caged to be best because it makes relubing and working on the diff nicer.
USUALLY a wavy feeling diff means you have an issue with the thrust assembly. For example, if you are missing a thrust ball. It certainly should NOT feel like that... but isn't related to your pucks at all. There is an issue with your diff build.
