92 Bronco Diff. Silicone or Gasket?
I'd like to go through and change all the fluids in my Bronco other than the Engine oil and I wanted to know before I tore off the back plate if the stock 92 Bronco used a gasket on the differential cover or if I have to silicone it back afterwords? Also, what's the best way to do the M5OD transmission and the BW transfer case? Should I invest in a good suction pump or are there decent drain/refill points for these. I'll admit I've only crawled under there a couple of times to change the oil and didn't spend alot of time studying things since the concrete was pretty warm that day.
Thanks

Interesting. I am about to change the fluids in both my Ram and my Bronco and had not considered them being out for a day after doing it. I always figured that if you applied the RTV, let it cure accordingly and then reassembled, it would be kosher to refill and go. Good to know so I can make sure I buy the right stuff.

I recently changed a rightside axle shaft. I put everything back together, used black RTV on the cover, filled the diff right away and never had it leak. Just don't be stingy with the RTV.
