Re: un1

Hi Bryn,

Easiest would be to scavenge from below the diff, i.e drain plug and feed back in the side via filler/level plug.

You could alternatively feed back into the rear section to ensure 5th gear is well lubricated, a known weak point for lubrication.

Fit a filter too and check regularly, might show minor issues before they get a chance to be major issues...
