Yes,I know you've got a prototype gearbox,you've mentioned it before

How is the diff.modified to take the diff rings mate?
Has it had some material machined off the faces of the diff.plates?

Mine's idler will be sorted asa I can get one of the machinists at work
to bore it and turn up an insert.
My 'box is fully ballraced,it's just that I can't get the diff. to hold it's
adjustment.
I can set it up static,but within a few minutes of running it's gone
slack and is slipping like hell.
I have two sets of diff halves and one is worse than the other.
