Ok so i replaced the diff cover this week. I drove it for about an hour to see if it held and it did fine. Now i go outside after it sat for about a day and all the gear oil is in my garage. what should I do? I put rtv all the way around the gasket and torqued the bolts down to 25 ft/lbs.

if the diff cover was all you changed them you must have missed something. was it leaking before?

What diff cover? TA? Correct bolt length? Forget washers?

dont use the gasket and only use rtv I used hondabond and that stuff is the ****

10 bolt on a TA. The diff cover was all I changed and I used the correct bolts and washers sent from mac.

It was leaking before but I assumed it was because the diff cover was bent

I used a scraper and 1200 grit sandpaper...
