    Towing and Payload

    Differential Question

    Hey guys. Quick question. I recently got my 02. It's 4wd. I drained the oil on the rear differential. I took off the cover. I see the normal spider gears but there is a 'S' shape spring thing between them. There is also a thin gear the size of the ring gear with lots of teeth. What does this mean?
