I have used ball diff grease on the bevel gears this time. If they get rough, it is definitely poor quality diff balls.

As you are using Ceramic balls I'd be interested in hearing about how the diffs perform after a few runs.

I will build the diffs with the new balls (ceramic in rear and tungsten in front) next week. I will post how the diffs perform after a few runs (if there are no problems with the weather) ;-)
My original diffs (balls are steel made), after 2 month approx., now get rough. Time to change it!
Hope I can use the #53970 and will fit it correctly.
For now I will not use the #50880 spare parts, simply I will turn the original ones.

Best regards
