Run it.

Worse case, you break more gears and get towed back to the trailer.  :-\

Musta done a better job setting up 571's than mine. I'm really curious what my patterns look like.

Decision is essentially regear now when it's PM, or wait till I strip out both R&Ps in the middle of Pensyltukian and then light it on fire...

broke the windshield the second time up Dragon's Back (that's it's name, right?).

I think it might have more to do with zero PM since it started getting trailered aside from hammering on things to make body panels fit again

Bottom of the front diff is ~0.150" thick. Thats a hundred thou away from "fine"

I got depressed looking at it so I came inside.

I can probably do a halfway OK plating job with the housing installed. Grinding the face flush with the guts installed might be another matter though.

Jeff I make fun of your diff skids but maybe you've got the right idea. Replacing that steel is way easier the replacing what's behind them.
