Looks great!
If you drive through water, maybe you might want to add diff breathers.

They reduce the possibility of water being drawn into the differential if you wade in deep water.

The differential heats up with use and any air inside expands and is expelled through a cheap one way valve on the top. When you drive into water you rapidly cool the differential, this causes a negative pressure inside that attempts to suck air (or water) back in. The breather kit replaces the one way valve allowing the differential to vent directly to atmosphere, and when the time comes to suck air back via a high mounted tube. It does this quickly, thus reducing the negative pressure while the axle is under water and the possible ingress of water.
