    Update:

    The small vibes I had were from a rear wheel bearing eating itself. They were weird, they would go on and off at a constant speed.
    Got the used locker motor today, installed and tested, all OK.
    Then proceeded to tear the diff apart and start the 4.56 install. If I remember I'll take photos along the way.

    When I was looking around for an elocker guard I settled on the Inchworm as well. No contact with the gas tank (with my setup) and I felt it provided the best protection. I still have mine laying around somewhere if you want to do a test fit at mod day...unless you buy one beforehand then this would be a moot point.

    So your not using you locker skid anymore? I noticed you have a full skid on the diff, does that cover/protect the locker also? Who made the full skid?
    It might be time for me to fab up a full skid.

    Yeah I'm fabbing up a rear diff skid and I'm going to protect the E-locker as well I canceled my order with Inchworm it's going to take to long for them to make it.

    I don't like that it doesn't protect the pinion and U joint that's really the weakest point of the 3rd.
