Yea what I was trying to say was basically what Billy said. For you at your power level Quaife is a waste of money really. The stock differential is VERY strong if treated right in the IX's.
It also seems that most the trannies you rebuilt for Chevy auto's which are fairly easy to rebuild. I would just pay Lucas to do it right the first time and save yourself a headache. Also you mentioned something about a friend with an MR. Make sure you get a 5sp case because they are different.
I am sure there are plenty of people on here that would be happy to lend a helping hand also if you get stuck.

well mine was from a dumb mistake of putting it in snow mode at the track. like i always have said. if it wasn't in snow mode i can guarentee you my car would still be running strong.
I seriously doubt that 800 RPM was the difference between life and death on your transfer case. AWD cars especially, sidestepping the clutch when everything isn't already wound up is going to destroy it guaranteed eventually. Torque applied to a loose/static drivetrain, something has to give.

actaully many they say dump it at 6300 is shock drivetrans.. and didnt slip clutch to less shocked.. and 5500 is harmless and 6300 is more power.. also track is sticky too and warm.. maybe my tires are sticky to tranck and bam transfer case



Sorry couldn't resist myself
