Ben,
Hopefully your diff set-up guy wasn't trained by the guy I used the first go around with locker & gear set install (Sean...owner of River City Differentials in Sacramento)! Per hoser we had to use gears and ARB from the 80-Series up until a few years ago when Nitro (maybe others now too) started offering 100-Series gear sets and ditto for ARB.
Even after I relayed the original instructions from Christo to Sean (argh...in writing no less) after getting the 3rds back home to Reno and installed it was then I learned Sean had NOT installed the 32-spline side gears but instead installed the 30-spline gears. What a hassle.
Through the process of breakdowns from Sean's incompetence I learned good diff set-up guys are hard to find. Sean's not on that good diff guy list.
