That's wtf I told the man Carl

I always like to change mine out every so often to look at teeth and make sure no unwanted parts sitting in there, lmao

Use synthetic fluid, then you don't need friction modifier. Are your spider gears cryoed?
its got royal purple with the friction modifier, the cover has never been off the diff
That sounds reasonable enough, any way to cram an extra clutch disc in there like the old Ford ones?
Carl the friction modifier, from my understanding, causes the clutch pack to slip more so it dosent chatter going around corners. I may try regular gear oil with no modifier to see if the clutches will grab better, worked on an old mustang gt I had
I may end up just replacing the packs, I've had cryo spiders for several years now and just never put them in.
you have to remove the spyder gears to get packs out ,,might as welll put them in
Yup, just haven't put them in because I haven't had any issues until now
I thought for a second you were talking about just doing packs and not gears ,my bad

Kinda surprised my spiders haven't come apart yet, I've been pretty hard on the truck, is the axle spreader a must have or just something to make it easier to get the carrier out? I've never messed with a dana 60
it is a must ,you cant get it out without it
I just dropped my truck off to get 4.88's put in. The installer called me a little later and said he pulled the cover off and the pin was broke off one side and some of the clutches were laying in the bottom of the rear. Funny thing is, I know the posi was working with no issues when I took it in. Is this a common failure?
The spider gears are a common breaking point
Yeah, cryo treated factory spider gears
I have the spreader and clutch pack tool Justin if you want to bum them .just have to pay shipping to and fro .they are a bit heavy though
