I couldnt find anything in past posts so I am wondering if anyone has recorded the temperature on their differential housing or carrier when they have used a rotor or sprotor in a single rear brake setup? If so can you share some info...

i was thinking on posting about this as well. Just wondering how people design for pressure buildup inside the diff due to heat. most cars have a breather but thats pretty hard to achieve with a rotating diff. any thoughts? (we had a seal blow out and dump diff oil everywhere)

gun drill your shafts going into the diff, if it dumps any oil outa that, it will be in the cv boots....
or go with outboard brakes
