One reason you may not have been able to get the driver/spacers in is
because Dodge in it's infinite wisdom changed the size of the C-Clip. Check
to see when you install the C-Clip to the axle that it slides flush into the
driver/spacer. If it doesn't then you will need to take the clip and grind
it down so that it does fit. I had this exact problem in installing a
Powertrax No-Slip on my 2000 D.

yea I got a question for you. I am going to install it some time in the
next couple of weeks so I will take this opportunity to ask you. When I do
go to install it could I get your phone number so incase I come into any
problems I could ask? When I went to install it before I got the couplers
in but I couldn't get the driver/spacers to fit in. Did you have any
problem at this point. If I would have got past that point I know I would
have been Scott free.
Also one other question. When you took out the stock pinion shaft did it
have some flat spots? Also did the powertrax pinion shaft was completely
smooth (no flat spots), right? Just want to verify.

I put mine in 2 weeks ago by myself, then took it on a 2300 mile road
trip. It was a rather easy job, easier than I thought because I never
worked on diffs before. Took me an hour and a half, and that was taking
my time. Wheel bearing grease works marvels in helping keep things
together for the next steps in installation, use sparingly of course. I
have to go to work, but if you have any other questions, feel free to
email me and I'll get back to ya when I get home tonight.
