I forgot all about the studs. I just remember hearing that the 99's could sometimes have a range of parts from the earlier 98's used in their build so I was being more cautious about the brake setup due to other parts of the braking system that would need to be changed. Good advice for icy conditions too, we dont see that much of it here.

Now i know there is acouple different ways i can solve this replace the rear axle or get some kind of kit for the gears what im wondering is if anybody knows the easiest ways to fix this problem and cheapest ways.
Aussie or spartan locker. 300ish for locker, 1hr of your time and some gear oil and she's good to go!

Nope. These are the "drop in" style which replaces the spider gears.

It still has the center pumpkin that the shafts connect to. The Aussie locker is only for the 8.8 inch rear end so that wont help. When I was checking around on Randy's ring and pinion I found some good alternatives
