Gasket on 8.8 diff cover.
I bought a chrome differential cover that came with a gasket for my 8.8. I was wondering if I should use the gasket, or just use silicone?
Primary rig is Green Thunder:
95' F-150 XLT 4x4, 302, 5 spd, MSD 6A, Flowmaster American Thunder Exhaust, Sunroof, Clear corners w/ Diamond headlights, CD player with 2 10" subs and some 32" BFG Muds
.
Check out my Gallery for a look-see.
Then theres:
99' Mustang GT 4.6L
88' F-250 Superduty 4x4 351/c6
95' Mercury Cougar 4.6L V-8
80' E-350 300/6 with a
3 spd column shifter. Top speed is 65mph, Go Baby Go!

my 0.02, since you already have the gasket and dont have to buy one I would use the gasket they provided. My experience has been good in using gaskets over silicone sealant.
