You know what Colin? I was a bit in doubt if this beauty is restorable. I'm not anymore. Your work is amazing!

Thankyou Petr. Now that I have put my shaft aligners in and the bearing plugs, it all comes together really really well. Basically, if the shafts that I made line everything up and the spacers are correct then there is every chance that this fabricated gear/diff housing will work. If I get a chance over the weekend, I will clean up the gears, shafts and bearings and install them for a look see.

I am quite capable with a welder, mill and lathe, but I am still impressed as hell by this. I would have thought distortion while welding would have given you a fair bit of grief and you would have maybe been better machining a finished weldment but you have obviously planned your assembly and managed heat very well. Again, fantastic project.
