New Rear :) hey everybody,
the weather finally got better this weekend and I was finally able to take out my WS6 for a test drive. I put in an MS3 cam and a Currie 9" with a detriot locker.
It a used rear, so I was slightly nervous but there was no wine or vibrations or anything
Actually I couldn't even hear the locker 'ticking' as i went down the road?
I figured I would hear it, maybe my exhaust is too loud
After doing this swap, i'm surprised about how little there is to hold everything together.
I only put about 20 miles on the car this weekend and kept it under 60. I'll probably go back over everything and make sure the bolts are still tight. Anything else before I start to beat on it?

Great job! Also beware that the detroits have a tendency to "load up" when going around a corner and then let go. It can sound like you blew your rearend and the car can even jump. It is less with a soft locker, but the detroits are bullet proof!
