this had crossed my mind, kap suzuki are meant to be one of the leading suzuki modifying companies so youd hope theyve thought of that! !

if I design one it will look very similar but ill use the bottom 4 bolts on the diff rather than 3 like theirs. So hopefully it will spread any load abit better as it will be mounted to effectively half the diff.

Fill till it starts to spill out.
