Don't waste your money of the paddle kit. You will have to just grind off a little material on the end of the block. This will alow you to put it in and still get it back out if you have to. The block will want to hit the corner of the ring gear if you don't grind the block down. Grinding on this will have NO effect on the gears,carrier or rearend itself.
