the 16t gears meshed in pairs to mechanically connect the two sides of the
diff. The idler was locked to the diff housing using a 1 x 5 liftarm w/ crown
holes. I used bricks and technic plates to form the diff housing. Probably
could get quite a bit smaller using liftarms and various connectors and a more
compact way to lock the idler.
