rear end Q's
so i got a 07 ram sbrc hemi 4x4 and the rear end has the factory lsd, and the pinion seal is leaking, i would like to change it tomorrow just wanted to kno if i should replace the seal with a factory chrysler seal or is there a better seal elce where? also can i just mark the pinion nut and retighten untill the marks line up? will that get me back to proper spec?
also having the factory lsd i know about the clip failure, is it worth putting new clips in? i dont got the cash for a aftermarket lsd so figured installing new "c" clips wouldn't be a bad idea until i purchase a new lsd set up
thanks

I'm not on my personal PC atm where my links are but I can help you out later with them. In mean time...
Napa has a double lipped seal that is better than OEM.
Mark nut to casing not washer. Count # of turns and pay attn to where the mark is when nut falls off. Retighten to # of turns and then 1hr past original mark. Use red loctite with original washer and nut.
2005.5 up has revised clutch pack retaining clips. Its not worth it to pull yours out to replace them with the same part. Pulling them out and driving will wear down the clutch fingers and casing after just 20kmi so not really reccomended. Carrier needs to be pulled for a change anyways. Do a visual with the cover off.
