Front dif case sealant

[Don W.]

For about the third time I've got the front dif out to try to stop it from leaking at the case half's. Not much but still a leak and I know it's not the seals or side plates. What do you guys use. I was thinking of making a very thin gasket then readjusting the carrier bearing to compensate.

Thanks.

I would think anaerobic sealant would be ideal, but I haven't tried it on a front diff.

I have used Yamabond 4 with success. It is available at most Yamaha dealers.

I used anaerobic sealer on mine and it works good

x's 2. That stuff is great. I don't even think of using anything else. When I wrenched for Honda we used it.

Loctite 518 anaerobic sealant works great
