Old member, newish Raptor

I traded in my 2012 Raptor yesterday on a 2018 Raptor. 802A with carbon fiber package. Got a new engine under warranty last year. Got a decent deal on it. Very happy so far. Miss my old 1st Gen, but this really is next level.
Pics, or it didn't happen...

Very nice. This is a super slow sub forum, so I may be the only response you get. Enjoy that new(ish) Raptor.

Upgraded the differential cover... Old gasket was crusty. One bolt broke. Had to drill and tap it.

How much more fluid does it hold?

I managed to get 5 quarts in, but that was to the top plug. After some research, I'm going to open the lower plug and drain off a quart or two. I think it should hold about 3.5 quarts. .5 more than factory.

Yeah, I read that the upper plug is there in case you have a differential that has the pinion angle raised to line up better with a driveshaft in a very lifted truck.
