[QUOTE="olympic, post: 16413060, member: 168598"] Permatex Green RTV, Permatex "The Right Stuff" or Ford TA-29 sealant are highly recommended for diffs since diff fluid tends to weaken lesser sealants. Make sure you follow the directions, most will recommend letting the sealant set up for a while before torquing down the cover bolts. Make sure both surfaces are SPOTLESS and degreased with brake cleaner. Make sure there is no oil left in the diff that can drip down onto the sealant before it has cured. Let the sealant cure 12 hours before filling the diff. Recommended fluid is 75w140 and a bottle of Ford friction modifier. Capacity is 1.25 quarts including the friction modifier and should come up to about 1/2" below the fill hole. If you fill it right up to the fill hole you'll end up with oil spewing out of the vent while driving. [/QUOTE]
