Baught some used 4:10,s from eBay. Price was right $75.
Listing said they were removed from a 2000 s-10.
Installed some new bearIngs on the pinion and set it up in the housing.
Took the ring gear out of the box and found it to have 7 teeth ground down .
Which made my torsion block slide in super easy.
Grinding the ring gear does not sound like a good idea to me..
Car is stuck on my lift at work I don't know if I should put these in. Or if I should buy another pinion bearing and reinstall my old gears
Any way messaged the guy I baught the from and this was his reply

"This e gears were removed from a 2002 camaro and it had a torsen GM posi unit. There is NO other way those 4.10 and stepper can be installed on a torsen type posi as it has a BLOCK NOT a round rod slide pin like a auburn open or eaton unit. Should not affect the run as it was from a running car. We installed the factory 3.73 back into that car as he was selling it.
As long as there is no sharp flashing at the top of the gear..which it appeared when it was packed DID NOT you should have not noise. But we also did not drive the car before we removed it. Jim JD RAce"
Car has to be off my lift by Monday before I start work....
Any suggestions
