Yeah... Those are the bearings. They are not part of the diff.

The quality of the machining looks to be similar to other OBX units I have installed. My Quaife is much finer in overall finish machining.

If it doesn't have the Quaife logo stamped in it, then it is not a Quaife unit. That is the plain answer. There are more details, but that's a start.

Yes, it does matter. I paid for a Quaife so if it's not, I won't be happy!

Thanks for that. I see there are two recesses on the face of the Quaife that mine does not have. That and the obvious lack of a Quaife logo. Looks like I got ripped then. Thanks for your help ppl!
