SCOTT-- Got my S60 today and it looks nice and sexy! BTW, Is it supposed to be really hard to turn over by hand? And what did you say again I should torque the ABS sensor down to? Hopefully I can start on the install tomorrow. Thanks again! This is by far the best customer service I have received in all my dealings with the major LS1tech sponsors. The rear arrived at my door less than 2 weeks after my 1st phone call to Scott with nothing but top notch service in between. I probably could've picked the rear up elsewhere for a few pennies less but I went with DLS for the great service I kept hearing about and that is exactly what I got! A big TTT for this sale and for DLS!

The tube seals are rubbing on the axle bearing retainer rings. Moser uses a thicker ring than everyone else. I have seen that on a few different builds without any issues. The sensor needs to be set to about 20 ft lbs and thanks for the positive feedback.

My new S60 is all in and ready to rock....fit like a glove! Now I just need to finish the motor! Scott- Is there fluid in it already and if I need to fill it, what should I use? Also, what is the break-in procedure?

You will need 3-4 quarts of 80W-90 non-synthetic oil for break in. Drive the car for the first time about 3-5 miles then let it cool for at least 2 hours, drive it again for 15-20 miles and let it cool over night. Put an easy 300-500 miles on it before you start really running it thru the gears.

Scott is an excellent sponsor! He built me a 12 bolt late last year. I haven't had a chance to get to the track and beat on it yet but I'm sure it will take all the abuse I can throw at it! 33 spline axles, welded tubes, TruTrak diff, hd driveshaft and nice weld on sway bar mounts. Can't beat it! Now I just need a torque arm and panhard rod so I can beat the **** out of this thing.

All Pm's have been replied, we can build a Dana 60 for your 2002 Chevrolet but you would need to go to an aftermarket disc brake system like SSBC or Wilwood.
