Re: diff oil plugs
Are the plugs that are getting damaged to "drain" plug or "fill" plug? (I'm sure it will be the former,but thought I'd ask.
Given the welding in a "diff shave" can often cause the diff to bow slightly, do you foresee any possible issue welding these protective rings on, or not going to be a factor?

small welds let each cool before the next
