Didn't use a kit, you can remove quite a bit before needing to touch the ring gear. Believe its just a modified ruffstuff diff cover.

Not really anything special. I went out snow wheeling, blew another yoke/driveshaft so I upgraded to 1410 yokes in the front.
I just shaved and plated like they said, nothing on the gears got modified. After wheeling on it a year, I didn't have one single hang up on the diff where more of a shave would have helped.
Picture is a pile of all my broke yokes from the last year...

New shocks on, had to lift it a little because the shock was longer....made a bastard pack in the rear. Lifted it about 2.5" in the rear and 3 in the front. To lower it back down I will have to make new shock mounts.
