Looks like the Zanfi version uses oil seals too - the price though!

Yeah. RW said he is gonna put seals in too.
I've been impressed with the lobster and manifold and wanted to stick with Richards gear as its decent stuff.
You get what you pay for. Richards not the cheapest but i haven't heard any bad reviews and if he does have any problems or delays doing parts he keeps you informed and always has a list of options to resolve it.
May look into the trail tough kit.

Looking at the pic on RS site it looks like its a different set up to the zanfi one, as far as I can see the mount in the picture has 6 holes and splines?. so does this mean it replaces the hub on the end of the axle? this way the splines would match and be stronger???? could be miles out like

I'm not sure about the pics.
The Zanfi one looks like its an adaptor that bolts to the casing. Then the stub axle bolts to that. I presume the RS kit is very similar.

The rs one just uses standard drive flanges but I think in the picture on the site is different to what the kit comes with, it's pretty much the same as the zanfi one but without the seal, well that's what mine is like anyway.
