Yep it’s at worst a gasket as big chief says above.

Now he know my answer was legit since you affirmed it. Thanks, man. Much appreciated ?

I guess I should never post in any thread that you have already answered. ???

Make sure one of the rear hexes in the wheels isn’t stripped. That happened to me.

Yea, the fluid was all around where the cup joins the gear, so I’m good to run then?

How much fluid leaked? Did you open it up and look? I would at least do that before running it.

It left a stain a little smaller than an xt60

Well some trucks have come from the factory with about that much diff fluid in the whole cup. Your call.

Welp, I won’t run it until I go to my LHS and pick up some thicker diff fluid, thanks guys!

 

[The Twingo Lord]

It hasn’t leaked any more fluid from what I’ve seen so far, I think it was just a little loose

What about just stuffing some of this in there?

Don't do that.

I just use lard. Smells good once it warms up too. (Obviously just kidding, bacon fat is way better)

Just kidding. Please do not use lard or any type of animal fat in your difs!

You could maybe use that for outside the diff cup.

Just not the center. Don't want to grease that one.

Doh! Yeah that could get messy.

Ok, I used it to grease the cup on my hpi bullet, which is a project that is long gone, btw. I won’t, maybe for the cup tho
