I believe the rear belt is too small for the TC5, if I'm not mistaken. You shouldn't need the rear belt anyway. It seems to be able to run more than loose enough. It just seems the fronts end up being too tight. I stretched my stock belt manually, and it isn't too bad, but I'm really looking forward to trying out the AE low-friction units.

You don't have to use the o-rings in the one way. As a matter of fact when I put them in, it limited the suspension travel because the dogbone hit the o ring.

Aluminum outdrive and Diff nut
I have it working, but would like to know if there is anything better fitting that doesn't come as a kit??
#4347
I setup my aluminum outdrives onto the rear diff this week and have a question. The outdrives have the wider slot for the dogbones, and the stock diff nut with plastic barrel is way small in the drive slot. Plus...to make matters worse, the plastic barrel appears to only come as a kit with the plastic outdrives.

When runnning the aluminum outdrives you need the plastic blades which go on the driveshafts, this takes up the gap and protects the aluminum from chewing out. There is also a larger plastic t-nut but not sure of the part number

Yes...I checked the part number from manual, and that leads to the full set of plastic outdrives. I saw the white ones your refering to show up in a search. I may give those a try rather then throw away plastic outdrives everytime I want to replace the diff nut.

Ok i have a really dumb question with regards to the rear toe in. Is it measured per side or total. I am pretty sure it is per side but would just like to know for sure.
