RuffStuff, I like the construction of it and that it's lower profile which will be good for my low lift.
When I had the diff and seals out I ran a smaller diameter straight tube down the center of the axle tubes, it would feed all the way down the long side then snag on the seal lip coming into the short side. It was pretty clear based on that, and I sanity checked it with a piece of tube I had that was almost snug to the ID of the axle tubes. It bound up mid-way before I did any adjusting, then after some press work on the I beam it would pass end to end freely and the smaller bar would no longer snag the seal lip, it rode evenly along the bottom the whole way. Not as precise as using a machined rod inside the carriear bearing caps, but good enough for a dana turdy in a beater.

^what he said. The "added backlash" isn't the part I'm worried about, it's physically unlocking and shifting the vehicle sideways
