hey all, came home from my trip to find my aussie lockers on my door step. im about to slap this puppy on and hopefully document it with pictures and maybe some video for everyone who isnt as familiar with diffs or gearing like yours truly. i have all the tools and just got back from autozone with all the other stuff i need. what i bought there for the install:
super black rtv silicone 6.99
valvoline bearing grease for ford/mercury/lincoln 3.99
2 qts valvoline full synthetic 75W-140 gear oil 17.99 (x2)
super funnel (looks like a beer bong) 3.00
brake cleaner (4.29)
anything else i need to get before i take my diff apart? any last second suggestions or tips on how i can make this install easier? anyone with experience installing these lockers in a solid axle rear ford 8.8 31 spline have anything to add or let me know things to watch out for? i will try to document it as best as i can for the forum. thanks fellas.
