You didn't ruin it. It already sucked. LOL If it got low enough on oil to get a bearing, you would already know. It would be very noisey and whine like crazy. If you are not experiencing that, you are good to go for now. You need a diff cooler or it will happen again.

Don't forget the Wavetrac. It is a nice diff also. You don't need a finned cover if you do the diff cooler.

LMAO, that is a problem, listening to Bimmer Boys! I ran a Wavetrac with know issues and good results.
