So, took the ring gear out to get a look at it today. Pics attached. The "pitting" is why the guy at the shop said I should replace it. On the west coat differentials website failure analysis page, it looks like it might be from over heating. (Except that it's not this way all around it...which leads me to think it's just from corrosion.) Anyway...it just doesn't look that bad to me (and I haven't found a better replacement yet.) Any opinions?
