There are 600lb'ers too. Just be careful goosing it around corners with the 800lb springs. Oooops 
1slow01Z71, I would go with the 800's too. They're pretty agressive, but I think that heavier, hi-po trucks could benefit from it. When I was doing the rear in my car, I found that that's what most of the heavy Chevelle guys run. It might wear out a little sooner, but it tough to say, because the clutches won't slip as much. But they are constantly pre-loaded. I think they would be good for off-roading as well, because with the 800's its damn near like a locker.

I seem to remembeer someone posting a diff cover that locks into the eaton to make it stronger. Does anybody know who makes it and the pn. I couldnt find it in the search. Is there anything else we can do to our rear ends to make them stronger without swapping out for a 14bolt.
