**Notes**
One thing I failed to mention in the video is that when filling the diff you need to have the car sitting level. Of course if the rear only is lifted you may not get enough oil in and if the front is higher than the rear you may get too much in. So make sure you have the car sitting level when filling. Also the diff takes 1.15 litres, not 2 as I stated. The gearbox takes 2 litres.
