The demon axles came with one differential seal. Should it have come with two? Also I thought the differential was not serviceable. So why even come with one seal? If serviceable should both seals be changed if not leaking?

you’re missing a seal is what you’re saying? They technically should be changed when you do the axles. I’ve never changed the seals, no leaks in any of the diffs I’ve had

Seals on everything are serviceable, pry it out and put the new one in. The actual internals (limited slip clutches and hard parts) are not serviceable.

One was dry and good. One was oily. So, he changed that one. It worked out where he did not have to order the one extra seal. He is topping off the differential fluid. Then a realignment. On the front end it uses the tabs as it has AAD arms.

Toe out on right side some on rear Take it you don't have adjustable rear arms being your camber is -.5 and -.7

The upper control arm kit to adjust it. Target would be 0 to +.3.

Makes sense as when the car squats if set positive the tires would go to zero camber and you would get a larger footprint for traction.

They come with +2 and +4 tabs. +2 suppose to be stock. Each tab moves it .24. So you we need +5 left +6 right or +4 and +5. You can buy tabs and split them up with 2 different ones

Tabs are sold in 8s. You could split it with +5 and +6. So if you bought the arms you would have 2-4-5-6 tabs. You could also split another with 3 and 7 with more options

My car had 5 and 7 in it but I now have Demon springs which lifted the rear and changed it. I had to change to 3 and 5 and I'm right about +.2 camber

My rear is higher. Not the demon springs. But the 1320 springs bought from Steve white a few years back.

Yep, that rear toe. Also he dialed in your front toe, it was too far out also. I’ll bet it feels better now.

Now be careful with camber adjustments. Your close now. But know that if you change camber the toe changes. The toe needs to be last set.
