This was what I was wondering. With what it cost me for the synthetic 75w140 and the friction additive, I don't want to take any chances. Apply RTV, finger tight, wait one hour, torque, oil in 24hrs. That's the plan.
EDIT: I'm glad I asked this....The D/S axle had the rubber part of the seal separated from the metal part. I damn near forgot to check the vent hose.......
Good plan, and catch! If it’s as you say going to be RTV: Waiting till it’s fully cured is how Grandpa would do it. Rushing things and dumping in fluid ahead of time is for the impatient. Grandpa always did things the right way:lol:
