Default spool for 10 bolt?

does anyone offer a spool for the 7.5 ten bolt rear. I was thinking that a spool may strengthen the rear. I have heard that the spider gears are the weak link in the torsen.

I doubt the spool will help. Another weak part is the R/P and being that you're at 4.10 makes it even weaker. You can try it but with those gears, sticky tires and a M6, you are better off upgrading now while you can. You can get a 9" setup for around $1500 and sell your 10 bolt $500 if its still in decent shape.

Spool would be a waste of money for a 10 bolt.The axles would have to be replaced then you'd more than likely blow up the 4.11 pinion gear.
Torsons are pretty strong in the 10 bolt.

you would need c-clip eliminators also so by the time you bought axles/spool/c-clip eliminators (if they even make them for these) and a new ring and pinion you would be half way to a 12 bolt with a spool.

lincoln lock, hehe - havent heard that in about 20 years
