The Ballistic retainers work just fine if you over tighten the bolt and dish the retaining plate, been using that design longer than they've been in business........ It works if the bolt is tight enough.

I'm running the duff coil cups front and rear. I really like the way they allow the coil to lift at full droop. I can really stretch the coils out.

Well last night was a blast. The drivers side lockout has chosen to challenge me in single combat to the death. I dealt it many blows with my war hammer and will remove the rest of it in pieces with the drill and air hammer tonight.

Stock are 30 right? As long and any 60 slug fits in the unit bearing hub then yukon sells some 30 spline ones. I think they are like 250.

Yes the Yukon ones will work just fine, just be sure to use locktite on the bolts, they will back off and fall out without it. If you were in the market for some 35 spline, I'd make you deal for close to 1/2 that.

Aluminum got all flaky and coroded then it froze up in the hub. It soaked for days and just would not budge.

Yeah then I'd need 35spline outers. We both know that's going to happen just like I knew a 60 was going to happen when I broke two 44 joints in 2 days. When it happens is another matter.

Raptor, I don't know if you are interested in lockouts, but I have a set of 30 spline warn hubs I would let for for $100 shipped if you are interested. I have outer stubs too if you need spares.

Hey thanks! that saves a ton! Are you in a hurry? I need my tax money to do my final roundup of parts.
