Default 4.10 Gears!

Been a great ZR-1 weekend. Went to Carlisle on Friday then spent Saturday installing a swap-out diff with a 4.10 gearset.
Big shout out to Phil Wasinger - He rebuilt a 2nd-hand Dana 44 for me: Viper gearset, new clutches and bearings. Contact pattern is picture-perfect! I am saving my original 12k mile original diff intact.
Also added ZF Doc beam plates and Marc's speedo correction gears.
Thanks also to Dempsey, he gave me a few tips as we chatted for a while at his Carlisle booth on Friday about wrestling the C-beam out.
Here are a few pics. I made up a fixture to keep the diff square on the hoist so that I was able to handle it as a 1-man job.
And she runs great!! Can't quite lift the front tires off the ground but a nice upgrade.
