This is how I received it...

Well that's one hell of a bend. You did a good job at straightening it out. I take it that the very little fluid that did leak out didn't warrant adding more?

Not at all.. It was VERY little. More of a few drips, not real leak. Yea, I was rather pissed when I opened the box...

I appreciate that, looking forward to your review. I've had other diff protectors but the housing always got chewed up and I saw these to be a way to prevent that from happening again.

I just wired it right to the battery. Perfect amount of wire. I did have to drill into the right side of the taillight cavity, but other than that it was easy.

woops, looks like I read the info wrong. Its the Olympic 4x4 Phoenix but the weight is actually 50lbs. Still not too much heavier than stock.
