Yes but I was upside down when I was working on it so doesnt that make it right side up for your part of the world?
I agree that working on some ones car is different than your own. I would still go for the diff with less miles. Best have a very good look at the mating surfaces of the teeth. Spider gears tend to ware badly also. Setting up a diff is a real art, especially if the ware on the crown wheel is uneven.
