im with progmh on that one... what a facepalm. take it to a bloody diff joint and get it done properly. they will only do it if the diffs out of the car. 100 to 150 bucks. dont be a tight arse. if the pinion and crown wheel lap isnt right it will wear out in 5 seconds flat. plus, ive had mini spools in cars before, and it will end up f ucking everything in the driveline. but, i thought it was a sick idea until i drove one everyday for 6 months and ended up paying through the ass to have shocks, bushes, clutch and gearbox done. and many other things i couldnt be bothered writing down. and csl-fly, exactly right. no warranty either.

I'm sure the spool fucked your shocks and bushes, don't you think this could have just been general ware and tare?
