> I topped up the diff.
Just my opinion, but based on what I found inside my 71 Stag diff, I would
want to drain and refill it, even if you just drop a suction hose in through
the fill plug. I added a magnetic drain plug to the Stag.

Also a good idea, IMO.

On the Stag, it's pretty easy. Undo the 4 bolts & nuts on each side that
link the halfshaft to the diff, then undo the clamps on the boot and slide
the spines apart. I spent a lot of time match marking them, only to
discover that they are keyed and only go together one way. Probably a good
time to replace the boots as well.
