Still, I took it for a test drive and it seems to be limited slipping so all is good.
A few years ago I had a ford 460 swing to the side when lifting it out of the truck and got my pinky stuck between the header and inner fender on one of the swings. I had an indentation for over a week where it crunched it. I too did not break the bone lucklily, but it hurt like a mother fucker
