Default Re: Replace differential seals and gaskets

Also make sure that all bolts return to the original location and do not use a thread chaser on either the internal or external threads. They are a different pitch than more common bolts of similar size. If any need replacing for any reason buy new ones specifically for the part being delt with. (This applies to the banjo to axle housings and banjo to torque tube.)Mike the gaskets for thickness and replace as found. So what we are saying is make sure every part taken off goes back where it came from or is replaced with a like part in all measurements, unless you are ready to overhaul the entire thing, which is often unnecessary if you are just curing a modest dripping leak. Also, I would download Tom Endy's instructions and print them to have in front of me all the way through. See #8 above.
