G16A Rear Diff CRACKED

Hey guys, a few months ago, I started a thread about how I had Grease filled in my diff instead of OIL. I figured out why, when I pulled the plate off the back of it I realized that the whole case had been cracked.......... by crack the bottom lip of the diff was missing. They RTV'd it and folded the cover back, and crammed grease in there. I was driving it like that for a while, I know it wasn't ideal but I chanced it. The other day my cart starting grinding like of SOB. So I started to take the whole transaxle assembly out of the cart because I am going to get it welded. Took transaxle out and pulled input shaft out, the thrust bearing on the shaft came apart and the little roller bearings were grinding out all the gears. Anyways, I am in the process of fixing this mess. I had to gut the transaxle case, so my buddy could weld it up. I have pictures that I will be posting.

I am slapping on the jakes torque clutch kit. Has anyone went with different gear sets? I was thinking going to 8 to 1, not sure if that would be stupid with a torque upgraded clutch. Is there a way to just order the Bearing on the end of the Shaft? It looks like a thrust bearing with little roller bearings... I ordered the whole shaft because I could not find just that piece.

Let me know what you think.
