Had to use backup! Measured new nut same size. Had 4 and a half threads counting the half sized starter thread. Finished w starter thread and 3 so lost one. Also 13.5 revolutions ended up wayyy loose only one thread showing and super easy to turn still. Used .5” wrench w socket to get it “Gutentight”. Almost as much as I could w the same wrench. Sketchy but hopefully good! Blasted vent out too.
Companion flange came off by hand w puller and socket weird. No wrench.
Lost marks you gotta scratch and mark! And don’t use a paint sharpie. Paint pen w scratches is the only way. We’ll see how it goes.
Welp alls good on a hour twenty drive. I feel like my car feels a bit heavier but idk could be placebo. At least I’m not at less than a quart now. That’s all that came out.
Love all your videos
Love the video’s! I can relate to almost all of them. I have 2 mustangs and 2 older mopar muscle cars. Couple years ago I started using permatex part # 81182 made specific for gear oils works awesome never had a cover leak.
Great time for some to upgrade to the Ford Racing diff cover :)
Yes, I have them on my mach 1 and Cobra, but not ready to fork out more cash yet ha ha
Danny Johnson don’t blame you there lol
Hi, really enjoy your helpful vids. I have a question. Did you torque the cover bolts using a torque wrench or just tightened till snug?
Just tightened them down tight in the star pattern. Should be about 20-25 foot pounds
I bought the gasket from Lmr. I’m going to use it instead of the rtv. Hopefully it won’t leak !
Did it leak?😅
Broke an axle at the track and chipped up the spider gears the other night. When I was going over everything I noticed every ring gear nut was hand tight...... what could cause that?
Perhaps it was assembled without thread locker (or didnt allow it to dry before adding fluid) See at 6:30 czcams.com/video/qaoN7n5gUW0/video.html
Can I use the RTV with a felpro gasket? If so, should I do a bead like you did or just a think layer to hold the gasket in place? Thanks in advance
I would use one or the other
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage do you think it's ok to use just a thin layer of rtv to hold the gasket in place when installing the cover?
These can’t be pumped out? Swear last time I did mine I pumped it out through the fill plug and haven’t had any issues. Don’t see any videos without pulling the cover though
I actually attempted that when making this video and the tube would hit the diff and not go down in. With the right hose it may be possible
Anyone know what a low whirring noise on a 98 may be, no noise in N, hope not Trans. thanks for video.
If it makes the noise while driving it could be the rear ending, but if it’s stopped and making the noise in drive it could be the transmission. I have an automatic transmission repair series if interested (and gear install) F-150

Always, always, always remove the fill plug FIRST, to make sure it's not seized...especially in salt states
Good advice. I’ve mentioned that in my other videos. Slipped my mind on this one.
there's gear oil rtv for the differential mating surface
