very interesting, my first thought was 'what diff oil? as GL5 will kill that set up' So i put a few example land rovers in the comma web site and they all seem to use GL4 so I was wrong :nenau

Very interesting, glad "pegging" is not needed on T2 diffs, Rick

Only needed when running big aggressive tyres 35" or more on the extreme end of off-roading.

Is it me or, did he video seem to suggest that the problem lay with the housing flexing? If so could the same thing not be achieved by strengthening the housing :nenau

yes it is just a crap diff design, no diff, housing or other should flex enough that it effects the mesh of the crown wheel and pinion, the Co that does the mods have done a good job but it should not be needed, Rick
