Looking back through my pictures, I had both my 2.93 LSD and 3.73 LSD sitting on the bench.
I noticed that the output flange thickness is different!
All of the pictures I've seen online have the thicker flanges of the 3.73 diff (right in picture).
I measured both differentials and the horizontal width face-to-face is the same. I've had both installed in the car with no apparent difference.
Has anyone seen this before? Should I be swapping to the thicker flanges in my 2.93 diff for strength? (If it's even a direct swap?)
As a side note, the areas around the bolt holes are thicker (on the thin flanged unit) then the rest of the flange. You can see it in the second picture.
