[QUOTE="hppants, post: 1307100, member: 27852"] At the risk of demonstrating my inadequacies as a mechanic.... .... oh - who am I kidding, EVERYONE on this forum knows about my "inadequacies". (sigh) Pants NEPRT post, take Two: REGARDLESS of how much oil you put in your final drive, I'd recommend torqueing the drain bolt to no less than 20 ft. pds. Those with more experience than I can do this WITHOUT a torque wrench. However it gets done, hopefully it gets done. If you ignore this suggestion, bad things can happen - DAMHIK. Alternatively, if you are insistent on not torqueing your drain plug, consider carrying a couple of fishing corks with you. I know that reads odd, but trust me, it can help.
