I don't think a 1/2 ton D/D would spread the housing on a normal trip back and forth to work!

Re: Cleargearz Diff cover!
Whenever i seal up a diff i always do a tight skim coat of black rtv on the housing before the gasket, put the gasket on, then a real tight skim on that before putting the pan on. Torque the bolts easy and let it set before filling it up. Seems to work pretty well. Sweet video and your truck sounds NICE.

Re: Cleargearz Diff cover!
That's really interesting how the oil gets a little foamed up. But man does it keep the gears well lubed. I must be weird, I watched the whole 9+ minutes....
