Do you need to remove the cover?

[@mplscarsales6652]

Perfect timing ⏱️ more videos of this year Ram with Hemi on maintaining your vehicle please .Thanks in advance

[@Hoppy1571]

Excellent point about making sure the rear fluid has the additive when your vehicle is equipped with Limited Slip Differential.

Cheap bastards at Dodge. A rubber plug instead of a proper metal filler plug.
Why remove the cover if you have a drain plug?

[@larrys.3992]

I'm sure there is a good reason to remove the cover. What is that reason?

[@Hoppy1571]

Is it required to disassemble the rear differential cover, and having to remove, clean and install new cover gasket if there’s no leakage ?

[@leskeegan9033]

If it is a posi or limited sip it is a good idea to inspect it tosee how much clutch material is in the bottom of the housing specially if it has a lot of mileage on it.

Thank you❤

[@anthonym_]

Thanks bro!

[@LemonBrisk]

Nice bead😊

[@jeffklemens3913]

On a differential without a drain plug you usually remove the cover to drain. What is the purpose on this differential if the plugged drained 99% if the fluid? Unless you need to inspect something?

Great video... hex socket number #

[@kenj.8897]

👍

[@regsmith7604]

A plug? And not a threaded bolt of some type? Jeez! I’m scared of that diff.

[@Oheeeoh]

When I change mine I leave the cover alone.
