Just the guy I was thinking of. Daryl, I just found a transmission housing in my pile of spares. While cleaning the thing, I noticed three oval holes which run front to back. Would you mind telling what goes on with those?

There's a bit of corrosion on the edge of the area where diff lock attaches but otherwise intact. Is there anything I should be looking for in terms of condition? I'm intending to posting this thing up for sale.

The locking diff was stored in a bucket which got left outside in the rain for over a year. Too badly corroded to save from what I can see.


Thanks,

BenT
