Differential

The BTR differential comes filled with oil and is very heavy so having a friend on hand was extremely helpful, doing it on my own would have been a real struggle.  The diff was lifted in to place and placed on my friends knees whilst he sat on an old office chair, this kept it roughly in place and allowed me to get a couple of bolts in to relieve the strain.

Mounting is straightforward with 3 bolts in the front, 4 to attached to the angle bracket and 2 bolts with nuts to hold the bracket to the chassis.  Once all the bolts are in loosely they were tightened up permanently.  Whilst this all sounds a five minute job, it took two of us almost an hour!
