Overall, good video. I have one trick that might help. I've found that with an 8-10" section of 5/16 or 3/8" rubber hose (I had some extra fuel line handy last time), much less spills out. I push the hose onto the nozzle of the oil bottle as far as it will go, push the end of the hose into the fill hole, hold the bottle upside-down just above the fiff, ans slowly squeeze the bottle. Periodically I stop squeezing and let air into the bottle, but doing it this way I spilled almost nothing last time until the diff was properly filled.
Hey I'm wondering I have an 86 f350 with the 6.9 and I have a diff cover with 12 bolts on it, would that be the dana or sterling axle? There's no axle tag
Is there a sticker on the inside of the driver door trim? There is a spot for an axle code. My 1997 F250 HD has an axel code of 35. That’s a Sterling 4.10 gear open diff. If your axle code has a letter then a number it is most likely limited slip another example would be C5 which is a 4.10 Limited slip diff
Yukon Gear usually has axles to fit whatever Or hit up Facebook Marketplace. You can figure any F250/350 in the OBS family with a Sterling 10.25 axle is either gonna have 3.55 or 4.10 gears 4.10 is the most common, especially in 4x4 applications

I have since invested in a 5 Gallon Pail Pump and just buy the differential fluid in a 5 gal quantity.
The hose/curved tip is a HANDY asset.
@@TheFSeries That does sound handy.
Gotta trust a man with a southern accent they got us to the moon!
Hahaha! Most people on here say I sound like Eugene from The Walking Dead
can't have seen too much worse, that's some rough looking fluid
To clarify - i don't need that sealant if I have a paper gasket, right?
Shouldn’t
But I personally like just the sealant and be done with it
I believe I could get along with that feller.
