im so fast only 3 months later and I got fluid changed (old stuff had some lumps in it) with valvoline syntehtic mixed with lucas gear oil.

great stuff, hints,
need 14 mm hex socket, prob have to hammer it in
5" 1/2 drive extension bar for fill side to clear exhaust
on drain plug, u push it towards front of car to unscrew, somehow i did this wrong for 10 minutes

reccomend a 'sta lube' type pump $8 to refill (tho it didnt fit the quart bottle or a gallon bottle perfectly it did pump fluid awesome)

i had previously cleaned off a part of the dif to see how fast it 'releaked'
and it was still clean, way too slow of a leak for me to fix


and TIP

when you unscrew that drain plug, dont lay there looking up at the stream of fluid spilling down, wondering 'where is my catch pan?'

thats a messy clean up


i could nt find the vent on top?( probbably due to sliminess of diff) but i did measure and finger check fluid level on refill, so its set for next 60K miles i guess



no pictorial i got too slimy from spilled fluid
