The 705 instructions are the same in regards to building the diff and they don't show putting grease on the diff rings.
All it shows is greasing the thrust bearings only?
Can anyone elaborate about setting up the diff. I'm not sure about the part where you tighten the screw. I tighten the screw and while holding both outdrives I try to turn the pulley. I set mine to where you can turn it with some force. After that I use the grub screw to hold it in place.
There is no real need to grease the large rings. If you chose to, then use only very little.
The way you have set the diff is correct. To be sure of the setting check if you need a considerable amount of force to make the diff slip when you try and turn the first gear of the 2-speed while holding the rear wheels.
