RE: Rear Diff Service - Lots of Pics!
Wow, that's a lot easier than I thought it would be, but maybe it's just cause I'm looking at pictures and not actually doing it! Just a few questions:
What kind of oil is does it take?
Where did you get that digital (I assume) force reader, and is it part of a wrench, and how much was it?
If you were to get a different cover, do you have to modify it to fit properly?
Sorry about all the questions. After seeing that, I want to get a new cover and do it myself! ha ha.
Thanks man!

Like Drew said, no RVT on the AAM axles. This was nice, as it made for the easiest diff service I have ever done. No waiting on the sealant to skin, no mess, etc.
As for the pump, just go to NAPA.....they are about $7.

I'm cheap and change my fluids way more often than I need to, so I tend to skip the synthetic stuff.
My Torque Wrench is a Craftsman DigiTorque. I like it. Only problem is it only goes down to 25 ft/lbs.
With aftermarket diff covers, you have to go by the manufacturers specs.
