    There's no need to break in a used part. By definition, it's already broken in. Install the retuned PCM after the gears.

    Do you really think with my mod's + 4:10's a G80 will detonate? Eventually I do plan on putting a 100 shot on my truck will the g80 not hold that?

    Tough to say, but everyone I know here that had one that fragged will tell you not to get a g80.

    I was told by my install guy and by Rons machine, that My my gears are pre worn a little, and since I had a used auburn pro, I didnt really have to break them in. But I did just to be safe. in about a week or 2 when I buy the diff cover, ill check and see if there is any metal on the magnet. I would be more worried about the gears, than the g80 on wear.

    you can get best carrier in world if you trash on it it will also break. if you dont abuse truck the stock carrier will last
