And every day you'll 'discover' yet more to fix.

Oh dear. Been there, done that. I did around 1k with the diff locked but I didn't push the speed over 40ish 9/16" rings a bell. Pretty sure that I bashed on a 14mm spanner, but I was roadside with a sheared prop and a cheap spanner set and a rock

Keep the faith. With all the effort you have put in sofar, your guaranteed at least 5 minutes of perfect green Laning before something brakes.

Well done on the swift turnaround. Sounds like an internal cylinder weep. No loss of fluid but no braking.
