DTE differential brace install
Installed one of these recently. The instructions from DTE were small and black and white, so it was though to see what was going on.
Maybe this will help someone else! I did not drop the rear cradle.

Nicely done. I thought I was going crazy for a minute because the part starting at about 2:30 repeats itself but I think you did pretty well as far as video directions are concerned.
Did you end up having to do anything with that notched portion or did it tighten down correctly?

Can't see the video because I'm at work but one tip I'll give is in regards to the three washers that go inbetween the transmission and brace bracket. They are a real pain to get in there because the bracket fits behind an ear on the tranny. I superglued mine together and to the bracket, then the brackets were a snap to install.
