Best Answer

Place a drain pan under the differential.

Loosen the bolts, but don't take the diff cover completely off.

Let the fluid drain into the drain pan.

When it stops draining, take the diff cover off.

Siphon out the remaining fluid from the bottom of the diff.

Scrape off the remaining gasket.

Place the new gasket on, with some RTV.

Put the diff cover back on and tighten it.

Remove the fill plug.

Fill to the bottom of the fill plug.

Replace the fill plug.
