front of the case.
7. To reinstall the differential, reverse the steps.
Refilling the differential
1. Remove the four 2.5x8mm screws from the differential case and
carefully pull the differential case halves apart. Work over a towel
to collect any fluid that drips from the differential.
2. Drain the fluid from the differential. You may wish to remove the
spider gears from the differential to make this easier.
3. Place the spider gears back into the differential case, if you
removed them. Fill the differential case with fluid until it the spider
gears are submerged half way.
4. Rejoin the differential case halves, using care to align the screw
holes. Be sure the rubber gaskets are in place, or the differential
may leak.
5. Install the 2.5x8mm screws and tighten securely.
