What color is it?

What kind of oil do you plan to run?

Has it been rustproofed?

Did you put new brake pads on?

Is it RHD or LHD?

Do you have a K&N filter?

Did you put the sticker on the filter box so you remember not to change it?

Is the color of the trans fluid green?

Is there any rust?

Just a play on a couple of comments I saw. :)

So the way I am reading this instead of installing a limited slip on the stock axle you replaced the entire axle?
