Hi Dan,

I agree with you, however often the problem with this diff is that it is fully tightened down so that the outdrives and gear are in contact, but there rings are not fully in contact with the balls on both sides.

So the diff screw is locked down, but the diff still slips.... and generates loads of heat....
