Sorry @MarkB , I don't see the logic in your posts at all... Are you saying this diff failure wouldn't have happened if the diff cage / chassis was further reinforced? Not trying to be offensive, I'm just not sure what you're trying to get at!
Can understand the need for more rigid mounting on the nose of diff but the overall cage / rear frame design and support of the diff wing has nothing to do with this failure. The tortional forces on the wing bushes are nothing compared to those on the nose mounts. Use the correct bush caps, mount the nose properly and diff won't dismember itself.
A more contructive input would be telling everybody where you think this additional triangulation needs to go (?)
