Author	Subject: Quaife diff removal

I've got a donor car with a diff in it and I was figuring out if I could just remove the Quaife before I got my Rallye box out. What it sounds like I need to do is get both boxes out and do them at the same time. Quaife into Rallye and planet gear diff into donor car.
