Nice work! A completely different approach than I took! Those dark grey
gears are nifty for things like this. I wish there was a smaller piece that

technic triangle in your diff housing? If so, you could stick a couple of
the small offset crankshaft pieces in the two side holes of the triangle.
The ends lock onto the gear teeth. I did this in one of my mechanisms:

The trade off is that you have to use two of the dark grey gears.
Anyway, I like your implementation of the Torsen!
