What did you get for covers?

I buy Valvoline gear oil in a five gallon pail, and use a barrel mounted hand pump.
You can fill the diffs without spilling a drop.  But, I kinda do miss the farting sounds of the quart bottles.  :lol:

a nice pair of rockcrushers.....I have the pep-boys
cheapo quart pump, but it's still a pain in the ass....

My rockcrushers are on backorder from Mad4wd  :sad:  There supposed to be shipped within a couple weeks.  Did you use the lubelocker gaskets?  I'm thinking of giving those a try.

I used the Lube Locker gaskets - they are nice because if you have to pull it apart on the trail - they are re-usable
Just have to torque the bolts per the directions or they may leak

I've had no experiance with them, but I have been told they tend to seep
more than the RTV.... I've talked to Rockcrusher and they reccommend
you use the RTV. Either way it's all good...but be ready to put in alot of
lube oil...I have 6 empty qts bottles downstairs, granted I spilled a little
til I got the hang of puttin it in ..... :mrgreen:

Will cause alot of contaminated fluids...  especially in the diffs.  Had to change both out this weekend. 

By the way,  I have not one,  but two shine diff covers now... :bling:

 

[Rubie Nubie]

After this weekend I will be checking for any water invasion....
and hitting all the fittings with grease to make sure... :mrgreen:

Great  :frown:....any signs of water in those diffs seeing a few of us were almost in that deep? I'm still waiting for my Rock Crushers to come in....and I was hoping to wait.
