Today we spent a lot of time frozen in indecision, which was more fun than it sounds. We don't quite know how to make our paint booth work yet. We talked about just getting the vehicle running first and worrying about the aesthetics later. Eventually, we put some fresh oil in the rear differential.

Filled rear differential


The rear differential has the fill plug about half way up, which (according to the forums) indicates an earlier model (it is lower on later models). We had expected to use an entire quart, as that is what the manual calls for, but it began to overflow after just about a quarter quart. This may be due to the viscous fluid needing time to seep into the various crevices.
