Message	in the installation of the parts? 99% of the mechanics I speak with down here take one look at the internals of my Z and look at me like they want to ask if it came from Mars. Everybody I contacted down here based their assumptions about the R230v differential on Mustang differentials and in reality their internals are quite different from what I hear (Bigger bearings, Higher quality materials). Also, every mechanic/shop told me they could not install the ring and pinion unless I put in new bearings because Mustang bearings crap out at an average of about 100k and they assume they HAVE TO replace their bearings when doing this job. If they are telling me this then why do you think an offroad shop would do better? Just my $0.02 - Alex Turbo lag is just god’s way of giving V8’s a chance
