8.8" Diff Cover Sealant

Tighten bolts to 38-52 N-m (28-38 lb-ft). Tighten the cover bolts in a cross-wise pattern to maintain axle housing cover flatness. Add lubricant through the filler hole until the lubricant level is 6.4-14.2mm (1/4 to 9/16 inch) below the bottom of the filler hole with the axle in the running position. Add 5.5 pints (less than 3 quarts) of Premium Rear Axle Lubricant XY-80W90-QL or -KL or equivalent, plus (for Traction-Lok axles ONLY) 4 ounces of Ford Friction Modifier F3TZ-19B546-MA or equivalent. Install the filler plug and tighten to 20-40 N-m (15-30 lb-ft).
