don't heat em up, don't stall it up, run it at half throttle

For 650 hp? With ET Streets? I doubt it but here's the help I can give you:

-Support Cover (TA, MAC, etc)
-Weld the axle tubes to the housing
-If you're talking about your thirdgen, upgrade to 28 spline axles
-Super Duty posi unit (Zexel HD, Eaton, etc)
-Run a gear lower than 4.10's, they seem to be more stressful on 10-bolts

AFAIK, these are all the performance mods to a 10-bolt. Good luck.

Summit sells Eaton stuff. Don't know about that heavy duty stuff though.

it is also an 8.5 inch 10 bolt. you have a 7.5 inch 10 bolt :(

the 8.5's can handle alot more than these can
