What type of limited slip fluid did you use for this tahoe?

[@tonyb7748]

No gasket maker required?

[@tylermcelwain]

You can either use gasket maker (rtv) or the paper gasket style he used. Using a gasket adhesive like high tack with a paper gasket will make it much easier to align as well as it will hold it in place when you position the cover.
