I've achieved another milestone on this project, the differential is done and fonctionnal. It took a few modifications and a bit of fit tweaking but I got it done.
Here are a few pictures and videos

This is such an impressive project. You really are going to know every centimetre of that vehicle by the time you finish. Bravo!

Thank you Kevin, having restored a TR6 back in 2005/2007, I already know it very well.
Here are some more pictures of the rear suspension and rear brake assembly. Everything went together nicely but I'll have to modify and reprint the brake drums to given them more with the segments, they drag a little.

The brake segments, cylinder and extension springs mounted on back plate
