Everyone here has said what I was going to, but a quick part fix - if your diff does drag is to cut it down as the Sals has approx 50mm drag effect.

This is a quick job. I used a slim blade so no excess heat was generated to cook the housing seal.
I cut a slight angle downwards from the front after this pic so it would slide better.
The first one of these I ground away till the housing matched the coverplate but it then wept small amounts of oil due to excess heat effect.
An update to this thread http://www.aulro.com/afvb/technical-...brazilian.html abaddonxi linked to is that Rockcrusher changed their name to 'Solid Axles' (and covers)
AFAIK these are still cast and made here in Australia, and it solves the chronic cover weep that occurs with the stock cover when you chop it, and the potential for it to peel away when dragged.
Get yourself one of these guards
helps slide over and protects the uni at the yoke.

So I'm finding I need to winch a fair bit more these days, due to ruts and bogholes becoming deeper, which I find a bit frustrating. But I s'pose it's all good fun!

(now where did I leave those lockers and portal axles?)
Yep portal axles are the go:D

Photo from today - had to use the hand winch to pull her out backwards while it was hailing! ;)
