I got tired of breaking the diff, so I just JBWelded the internal gears. Doesn't turn as easily to be sure, but no more diff rebuilds. The base diff design is horrible to start with; the outdrives themselves are supported by the bearing instead of the diff case supported by the bearing. This tends to make the outdrives wobbly. The JBWeld also sured this.

I would recommend the FLM CVDs. Not saying the MIP ones won't work, but the FLM's have held up perfect for me.
