yes, pictures are just for a referece about what i am talking about. The pumpkin housing i have in truck now looks like first big pic with 3 ribs and the second big pic is what the pumpkin on the one i just got looks like with just 1 rib. Took picks with iphone but cant figure out how to get them on here. Im guessing its alright cause everything else is the same on the axle except for the pumpkin

I'd say you are good to go regardless. If the new one has those gussets on the bottom, from housing to tube mount extension's like in the second big pic, it will be stronger.
