Differential Gear Oil Change Question.
I'll check it around noon tomorrow, the truck seems to handle turning better too lol, the gear oil didnt look horrible and it had been changed at one point. But I still changed it, there seemed to be a small sliver of metal on the bottom, but I noticed no issues otherwise, after adding the LSD and oil and driving it I also noticed that a moan that use to come from the rear end was gone :-), makes me wonder when they changed it if they had added the LSD additive.
Also would adding more than 4oz of additive hurt the differential? It called for 4, but I added like 6.

Filled it up at about 5PM today, it is now 12AM, and so far there is still no signs of a leak, I have a board underneath the axle and to make extra sure I run my hand across the board where the axle sat over and smell my hand, so far cannot smell any gear oil.
As of noon today I haven't seen a leak, the board was dry, and I could not see any signs of leakage at the bottom of the differential, if there was a leak, I should be able to see some wetness on the unit where it would drip right?








Give it a few days. If it doesn't start leaking, you are golden.
