A little bit trickier but not so much. Schumachers famous motor clamp system makes it easy .
Never looking when I do that anyway. Feel and listen is how I check.

Default U4174 - gear diff
any rumors when gear diffs (U4174) will become available for K1? I bet it would also fit SX3, am i right?
And finally: is it worth to switch to gear diffs? Less maintenance?

And they do not fit sx3
And how they perform vs ball I can't tell you. My only wish is that they don't leak

I don't know but would say that the pulley gearing will not be the same as the SX3 pulleys

K1 diffs are offset, unlike SX3 ones.

the K1 pulley have off set to one side, the SX3 have the pulley in the middle. On K1 is shims needed to reduce sideways slop and in the K1 have they cut more material away in gearhousing to make more place to the geardiff.

I was full throttle down the straight. Didn't realize the Durango try to regain traction and doing fish tail in the middle of the straight. I ram into his back and bust my bumper.

If you only broke a bumper then I think you did well, shows how strong the car is IMO.

Broke the left upper shock tower mount yesterday. Landed on the front, didn't have much speed, so must say i got a bit surprised. Heard it might be a weak point on the car, but was hoping they would last a bit longer, as i didn't get to drive much before it happened. But they are available in alu, so that's a sure buy for me now.

The front diff cover also got broken in half, just where the plastic goes under the shock tower mount, where the hole in the body is supposed to be placed.

Picture of the damage here:
