Diferential Leaking

[burt ragio]

Finally got around to install the rear Addco sway bar nice differance. At the time I noticed the front diferential seal was leaking. Time for a new seal & berring. I 'am also having the driveshaft sent out to Cape Cod Spring & Axle in Sandwich to get balanced. Love the 4:10s wondering if they don't like constant 2800 RPM daily runs. Maybe I should have not done the 4:10s & done a 3000 stall speed converter instead ?

Did you put a high performance girdle (aluminum differential cover) on when you did your gears?

[burt ragio]

Yes I did a stud kit & T/A dif cover.

There's your problem. Although the kit & Cover + studs are a must, IMHO, instillation protocols with sealants and thread goo are a must ...or it will leak. There must be a "how too" thread from someone's past experiences on the board, but if you can't find it, Wes at Innovative interceptors (hopefully the vendor you purchased it from) can help with proper instructions. Also, I advise going with an aftermarket drive shaft, and there too, you will find many references to point you in the right direction, here on the board. :)

I've found the drain plugs on both of my cars' differential girdles weep if I don't put a little bit of thread sealer on them when I screw them in.
