Very good! They should have come up with this sooner though! I've already replaced 2 diffs!

damn that is one long nut.

cant see how its going to fit inside the outdrive unless there is a whole lot of spare room in there. its a lot longer than the current nut.

perhaps thats the issue though. on the screws I have been snapping they all have a mark on the thread indicating the snap line and its just at the point of entry to the nut.

This nut would cover that point entirely the there would be a lot more of the screw inside the nut in this arrangement.

The two that I've done have both snapped right in the centre of the diff, hopefully though the extra thickness of the screw should cure this.
These should be supplied free of charge to all D4 owners, if there wasn't a problem you wouldn't need this upgrade and if there is a problem why do we have to pay for their mistakes?
