A couple of questions.
I'm gonna remove the cover to inspect and reseal. Hopefully I can save it. When making the gasket I normally use Right Stuff, Is that good to use?
I use the Zep silicone that comes in an aerosol available at Advance and most parts stores.
Recommendations on what differential oil I should use?
I prefer Mobil 1 synthetic with the recommended friction modifier.
Naturally I have to dig into this further to make sure the gears and shafts are ok.
