Dont forget to look at the RubberDuck Diff skid. I have it and it works very well

 

Thnaks for the info Darren
Knowing that info before hand is going to same a whole bunch of time. This is going to be a nice little project once it gets a little warmer out over here.
Thanks again, -Justin

 

I also found this diff guard. Theres a 7010 model which is made for a GM 10 bolt and should fit over the stock cover. Looks like it would prob work well.

I actually just ordered stainless replacement bolts for it here...

Allens Fasteners Begin Checkout Page

 

This would be the correct page...

Metric Stainless Steel

8mm x 1.25 x 45(9 pieces)
8mm x 1.25 x 50(1 piece) is what you want to order

 

Also for good measure I'd suggest putting some pipe sealant on those ring gear bolts as well as the drain and fill plug. I have a feeling they would leak otherwise. I used that soupy yellowy colored stuff made for iron gas pipe, seems to do the trick, teflon tape would prob work as well, you can get either at your local hardware store.

 

I'm going to look around the local harware/marine store for those, but that site you posted looks like it has one hell of a variety of different kinds of bolts. I was planning on using some loctite blue on the drain & fill plugs. I'll put a little on everything just for some piece of mind

 

just go down to the 8mm - 1.25 socket head allen bolt selection, those are the ones you want. get 9 of the 8mm-1.25x45 SHCS (SS) and 1 of the 8mm-1.25x50 SHCS (SS).
