    I did! Funny timing, and looks like he's doing a giveaway for that rig now. Was cool to see him do it slightly differently actually using the A.D.D. system and swapping the output shaft on the transmission rather than a full trans swap. Makes me want to track down an output shaft and try to rebuild my A340E into an A340F to have as a spare lol

    Finally got around to replacing that leaky driver’s side front diff seal and it appears to have done the trick. It’s still a mystery to me because it was seated perfectly flush and upon inspection there was no damage to it, so who knows, clearly something was up with it. Pic shows the leaky seal seated. I also made a short of the job, check it out, I’ve been trying to post more vids
