Those diffs are modified semi housings from rc4wd. The shafts are just a little longer and I had to re-machine the casings to make them fit but they work pretty good and are great all locked up.

I really like your tractor, if my Wedico were done you would probably have me trying to build one myself.

I wonder how well these diffs from Rigid would work?

Thank you very much. There is a lot of time and work put into this tractor. I am thinking after the beginning of the year I may be making another tractor to add to my equipment but for now I will just keep working on improving this ones performance and building implements for it to pull around.

I'm really leaning towards making a blade for the front before the snow flies so I can get a little outdoor time with it this winter.

Those could possibly work as small outer size housing as they look. I have never seen them before, do you have a link to them and is that a pass through axle or just a single output for the rear?
