« on: December 12, 2010, 08:03:04 PM »
Has anyone ever used a lazer thermometer on their rear diffs after driving thier kick on the highway for an extended period of time? if so what did you get?  Im getting about 150-160 degrees. wondering how much temp change my lower gears made.

That was about what the diffs ran in the Semi truck I used to drive
