I am hoping this should help with my rear grip issues.
I have also bought all the bits for a ball diff so was wondering if I should put it in the rear of the car. I have 40wt oil in the rear and 1:1 multi purpose grease in the front.
Just put the ball diff in mine. Absolutely love it. Just keep it clean. I'm done with gear diff for good. For the front locking with grease or putty is good to start but switch to the solid axle. with less rotating mass you will see a difference in acceleration.
