Added it to the news page with a link to this thread - looks like Durango have done a great job. Really like the look of those rubber boots! less maintenance!

Not sure about the rear diff access. Looks as though to get the diff out, all the wishbones will have to be unsecured? strange.

Blingaholic?

Don't worry bout'the diff access... if it's like on the A-1, which is a Durango knock-off, it'll drop out with 4 screws removed... best diff access there is!

looking at the pics, maybe the rear diff is loaded from underneath?

from my dusty old eyes - the chassis is a plate and so the diff can't pass thru it. The ribbed add-on bit is a replaceable chassis protector? That's what it looks like to me anyway.

Think the other way around. Loosen, lift gear housing, drop down diff...

...also, if you look at the rear alloy part that comes out, it wraps under the diff bearings too. so the bearing would struggle to move down to get the diff out.

my bad, Jimmy is right, the black part, is a chassis protector. Looks like it is a verticaly split rear bulkhead.
