They did not say but what I am figuring is that there looking not just for the 3rd but the entire axle, and they keep getting bent or warped axles.
Thats the only thing it could be cause hell, I have read up on the mod, I am sure i can print it out and they can find a good regular axle and a good 3rd and cut and viola be done.

I would ask them about it, if they are getting bad axles, or bad 3rds or what the issue is.... Ask them also what they are doing with the "damaged" third they have now... lol.

seriously avy, that mod is more than what it looks like.
at this point i would just get my vehicle back with the stock axle that was in it, or with a new open diff axle, and maybe go with an arb setup or an elocker at a later date.

Avy, make sure that they check out the rear drive shaft. It could be bent also, I'm not trying to prolong your time away from your gal, but if that's bent just a little it will be out of balance, and you will have viberation.
You will keep thinking it's tires but that drive shaft has to be straight or balanced. TJ
