my friend known as(forman)on here got a preaty rusty pw for parts. he pulled the rear diff out and it was a 489 gear ratio. the crappy part is the truck sat for about 20 years. the ring has heavy pits in it. to find out if he wants to buy 489 gearing im going to put it in the rear of my m37witch has 11x16 tires and i have locking hubs so front will not turn.should i use a heavy gear oil or use a lighter oil. i dont want to blow it up but it is allready weak with rust. he is doing a pw and may want the same. so i volinteard to do the swap to see the out come.kind of wondering my self what they feel like.
