Wish me luck....

Good luck Brian,i'm sure you will win,just curious,is in a girdle type aluminum cover or stock diff cover?

Just trying to make it alittle better Hank.
You know how it goes, tamper with something that holds oil, and you risk the chance of leaks. Hopefully it won't leak this time.

Thanks Mike,
Its a stock diff. cover. check out the pics in the thread about my rearend (Differential) that is. Those are pics I posted last week before I put it back into the car.
