Hi all, Trying to remove diff output on the RH side to fix a leak. Just need to know if I’m doing it right I don’t want to break anything. Have a bar made to hold the flange. Is it normal rh thread?? Won’t come with 1/2” rattler, should I move to 3/4” gun? Thanks |

It's a normal RH thread. Torqued to 70 lb/ft. |

Thanks mate. I’ll continue to hold it with the bar and try the bigger rattle gun. |

Use a socket and a breaker bar. Cheap rattle guns are useless. Don't take the side cover off or you will dislodge the shims. Just pry the seal out with a narrow screwdriver. |

Ingersoll-Rand Titanium 3/4” drive, nuff said haha! Tried breaker bar but no good. Unfortunately have to take housing off because it needs a repair and new gasket |

If the new gasket is thicker than the old you will need to add shims. I would have pulled the motor if it needs this. Bugger to do in the car... |

Haha yeah point taken! Got the nut off, 3/4 rattle gun sorted it. I’ll measure the gaskets and hopefully they’re the same thickness and no shimming needed. |

Recent black gaskets for the last 15? years are about .015" compressed. Original brown ones were less than half that. You would need to add about a .010" shim if so. Hint- put grease on the shims so they don't dislodge as you refit the cover. |
