Any chance you spun each belt driven accessory pulley while the belt was off to check for difficult resistance? Also, take the belt off and go for a spin around the block or down the street. The motor will not overheat without the water pump spinning for that short of a time. Alt and fan...
Good info, thank you. So one needs the entire axle to do this, and not just the diff? I got lost when you said to use the air locking axle housing, but you pull the diff out of it and transfer gears. I understand moving the ring gear and such over to keep your ratio, but....

If you installed it into a tube, is there enough thread engagement to hold back +40psi of pressure, and reliably with vibration over time? NPT threads usually like to have a lot of meat to bite for their wedge design to work properly. I'm guessing there is only 1 thread of engagement between...
