Well, I broke my truck again....
This time my 3rd member decided to break. 2 or 3 teeth broke off the pinion gear. The ring gear is a little chewed up but no teeth broken off that. Anyone have a clue why the pinion gear would break like this? Also, does anyone have a spare 3rd member they could sell to a poor high school student for cheap? 
Pics will be up soon....

Also if anyone has part from a 4cyl 3rd let me know. I might be able to get one going if i can get a hold of a few certain items.

I bought the 3rd already setup, it came out of someone elses truck so who knows how old or what brand they are. There was quite a bit of backlash in the gears when I got them, so that may have contributed to their failure.

Thanks for the input. No leaking at the pinion seal at all.
Zuk do you have any extra 4.88 thirds lying around you could sell for cheap

On IFS trucks there is a 3rd in the rear axle, on SFA trucks there is one in the front and rear. It bolts up to the axle housing, and contains the ring and pinion gear.
