The axle housing ia alot thicker than it needs to be. I just ground off enough that I feel comfortable that it won't crack.

Do be careful if grinding the bottom of the diff area to get rid of the bolt and smooth it out. It can get pretty thin in that area.

Once you get to the area that is below what is ground on yours. Very bottom. actually could be considered flat part bottom of case. It is very thin. Are by the bolt is good. I got a little grind happy and it is almost pushed in there. Crawler skidz take care of it though. |
