    Hey guys. I pulled my power divider and front diff to reseal them. Got lucky as my power divider was fixin to leave me stranded.

    Anyway, ordered all my parts, but didn't order the input shaft, and it pulled a few threads while removing the yoke nut.

    So, getting part #'s and I see the oil trough. I'd dahm near forgot about it being in there. Mine did not have one. Mine had been resealed before, so it may have been forgotten.

    Anybody seen one without the trough?

    Um I do not remember but it is in the parts breakdown in 2008. If yours does not have one that would probably be a good upgrade.

    Yeah, I was looking at the parts breakdown and showed it pre and post 08. I didn't realize until I went to reassrmble the power divider yesterday that the trough was cast into the housing on mine.

    Maybe i've seen it before and just don't remember. Anyway, thanks for the reply

    Thanks man: That dusted some cob webs off. My wife says it is selective memory.
