Thank you. Unfortunately it’s infinitely better than CL….so you get what you get I suppose ��

Diff parts are due shortly - looking down the axle tubes, the upper section of the tube (not where oil was sitting) has some rust, scale, debris etc.

I didn’t want any of these bits to fall / wash off in oil once on the road, so I rigged up a wire wheel on a couple drill bit extenders, dunked it in bucket of carb cleaner and honed the insides to get rid of as much as possible. It turned out ok after hosing things down with brake cleaner and running nice clean rags through a handful of times.

First 2 before, second two after.
