Amsoil 75-90 differential fluid has to be drained every 1000 miles...

Fluid looked good except for the chucks of spider gears that were spewed around. Broke two of the crosses at 340ft on a sled pull and all the spider gears. I replaced those but now I have one tooth on the pinion that is high

, I suppose that I've cracked (bent??) a tooth on the pinion. Backlash and contact patten is fine except for the one tooth. I'm going to pull the pinion and dye check it for cracks. If it's not fractured I may dress it down a little and put it together for a pull on Saturday. Anyone have a 3.54 ring and pinion that you will sell? I need it.
Guess, I'll just keep buying Amsoil.....got to blame the carnage on something
