Good job on the diff mate! Doesn't take much to bust one of these diffs, so you will eventually be able to change one in your sleep. I'm almost at that stage haha.

Yeah i was the sort of guy who got people to do things for me with my car, but now i am starting to do everything myself, saves me money and i know how to do it next time. Sometimes pain in the arse but as you said, the longer and more you do it the easier it becomes

Great you have a replacement centre and back on the road.
If the blown gears aren't trashed out by flying bits and look in re-usable condition, depends on the ratio of course...save up for a LSD unit and have fun without the worry of turning your spider gears into a Chinese 3D puzzle !
