LMAO! That's a funny thread title!

Going to do a rear end fluid change. Once I have the cover off would it be ok or advised to shoot a bunch of brake cleaner in there to get out any gunk?
Also,
How do I fix a leak at the front of the diff? The yoke (?) that the U-joint slides into. It seems to be leaking there and running down the bottom of the pumpkin. Is there a seal there as well?

 

I wouldn't. Just let it drain.

 

it'll burn pretty bad
i wouldn't do it either, like snakeoiler said, just let it drain.

 

yep. +1 on what they said. As far as the front end goes I'm not sure what that would be. I'm not help on that.

 

I've done it lots of times, spray the crap out of them and then blow it out with air. that stuff evaporates so fast there's nothing left by the time your done. yes, there is a seal behind the yoke that can be replaced, you just have to make sure when you tighten the pinion nut that you have the right pre-load on the bearings when you put it back together.

 

LMFAO at the title of thread, and then crying from lol'ing from the replys lol

 

X2!

 

brake kleen is fine, just make sure it dries completely

 

X3

 

im with this guy, i empty the can in mine, but the time your ready to put everything back together, it already evaporated
