hey stu, can u just explain the lip that needs to be cut down, does cutting that lip down allow the diff bearing to be pushed over them. Also can you offer some more details of the diff being stripped, was it some internal gears that went? what motor were u running, im thinking for a stock application, it could still be a worthwhile endeavour

thanks
