GN 8.5 rear spider/side gear kits???

[Damon]

This GN rear end I bought turns out to be a complete pile of ****. Naturally. They all are. I expected this one to be, and it has not disappointed.

So, the spider and side gears in it are completely roached. Some of the spider gear teeth are almost folded over flat. Super.

Plenty of spider/side gear kits for OPEN 8.5 difffs, but I'm not finding anything for factory limited slip diffs.

Who's got my hook-up? Thanks in advance.

And the answer is!..... Nobody's got 'em. They're unicorns, apparently.

I bought a new Eaton posi and called it a day. I'm not spending 3 months chasing my tail. I got some racing to do.

i broke the spiders in the Eaton brute force unit also. Lasted 2.5 seasons until the driver side one exploded
