Just bought the LROR front diff bracing that say's it's suitable for the rear?... Well, There's a few extra steps to the rear diff than the front.

What you need:
Obviously the diff brace
Grinder
Tap & Die set
Air line fitting
blanking grommet or bolt

Here's what I did.

First chop off the brake hose mount and put it off to the side, while you have the grinder in hand, chop off the original diff breather hole, use the thread tap on the inside of the hole and insert the bung to block it off.

Ok got that out of the way, time to remake the diff breather. Up on top of the diff there's a little round bit which seems like a good spot for it. Drill a new hole and again tap a thread. I used a barbed airline fitting.

Weld on the brace and brake line bracket and your done.

If you've got a welder there, why not just weld the hole up?

That was my first thought, but I also had a tap and die set and grub screw ;)
