I am unable to to get the studs to turn at all.  Once again, BUBBA did a fine job....I think the studs were tack welded to the case because they will not give.  Does anyone know the correct depth in which to drill the holes if I go that route so that I don't drill too deep.  Thank you!

IF you have at least one un-"bubba-ed" hole left, check the depth of it. I don't have a diff here to check right now, or I would measure for ya. Maybe someone else here has one out and can check that.

Well everyone, I have finally completed this project!!!!!!!!!!Wink  I used the existing studs and the new bracket and strut rods went on really well.  Now it's time to get at that front tie rod and the power steering control valve!!!  Thanks again for everyone's help....I'm sure I'll need it again soon!!!
