how was the amount of grease in the diff before you installed

There wasn't much IMO, but I'm not sure how much there should be. It seemed the ramp surfaces were greased, but the gears were pretty dry.

When I first got my Smart Diff I opened it up to check the grease, this is what it looked like. So far I really like it, I am running it in the center and I do notice improved acceleration. The spider gears are much smaller and there are ramps that clamp down on the spiders so I was concerned about wear, but after 5 or 6 packs the gears look fine.

Yours has a lot more grease in it than mine did. I did add some, but still not as much as you have.
