No idea, but he's sure got an eye for colour

Looks like a manual de coupler or something ......

think he`s showing you how to turn your syncro into a landrover

Weird Looks like its done away with the vc. By the amount of room left in the housing.

Austrailian market?

The whole thing is upside down....so would make the front wheels go the wrong way on a van

Would it?

Is it the machine that selects the numbers for the Ukrainian National Lottery?

Don't know...might do...can't be arsed to think about it just now but seems like flipped diff so I dare say yes it might.

He has the motor turning the input clockwise (viewed from the rear), and the ring gear on the left. Installed, the input turns CCW and ring gear is on the right. So it's upside down in the video, if flipped it would spin the right way, but the shifter mechanism would have to be moved to the top. He shows how the front cover bolt pattern is symmetrical so it can be flipped, I'm assuming the rear cone is the same and if so it could be installed normally in a Syncro and it would drive forward.

I like the idea. I'm assuming he did away with the VC, maybe he's using a locking diff hub assembly as his coupling, which would be far more robust than the VW decoupler.
