More time spent on the T/A pattern, I had it split down the middle by a local mill that has a huge band saw I put it in a frame so it could be held properly and run through true and square. I then hollowed out the diff section leaving ribs top and bottom, these line up with the studs that will hold the side plates and give strength and stop flex in the sides, I then put bosses in where oil will be pumped in and extracted from with the pump that will be driven off the lay shaft at the back, one will spray onto the crown wheel as it rotates away from the pinion so as not to create hydraulic pitting and one will spray onto the main gear stack it will sucked from the diff section though a boss at the bottom R/H side at the rear. There is still some matching up inside the housing to finish but it is almost there. Some photo's to look at, Cheers Leon :thumbsup:
