FLM combo bulks/advice?

Whilst we're on the subject of diffs, I was bidding on a UE 6 spider kit, but some bloke called 'Procharged5.0' beat me to them..... git

I don't understand why the used one have gotten so expensive lately. They are still available new (6 & 8 spyder kits) on UE, so its not like they are going away. I bought 3 sets of 6 and 1 set of 8 spyder diffs over the past 2 yrs and never paid more than $150, all in excellent shape. Now I'm seeing buy it now prices that start at $200, whats up with that?

Paying for them assembled (used) cause don't think they can assemble them correctly?

Either that or people who get caught up in the bidding. I have seen plastic RPM parts auctioned at prices higher than retail.

While we are on the subject of the hybrid diffs, where can i get shims to alter the pinion depth? They are 8mm id, not sure how big the od would be?

Would the larger shims in this work?
