Spicer 10023539 Differential Cover (Ford 9.75), 1 Pack

Perfecto para diferencial 9.75", con 12 tornillos. Esta tapa esta mucho mas reforzada que la original. Pesa bastantito. Ademas, tiene el plug para desasolve en la parte inferior, y 2 tapones para rellenado. Ademas, la tapa ya trae su empaque. No tienes que usar silicon gris (especial para diferenciales). Es solo ponerlo con la tapa, rellenar y ya, a poner a funcionar el vehiculo. Si no quieres usar el empaque que ya trae, puedes usar el Permatex 81182, formador de juntas gris. Aceite: El manual de servicio de la agencia Ford indica que el aceite que le pongas debe ser sintetico. El original es el Motorcraft SAE 75W-140, lubricante sintetico eje trasero En mi caso, encontre aqui en Amazon el Valvoline SynPower SAE 75W-140 a muy buen precio. Este aceite te sirve si el diferencial es: a) de tipo convencional abierto b) de tipo lock-diferencial c) de tipo limited slip, porque este aceite ya trae el aditivo. Este aceite cumple con la especificacion Ford WSL-M2C-192A / GL-5 para diferenciales Se necesitan 2.8 litros en total. Tornillos: La tapa incluye los 12 tornillos. Lo unico, es que el diferencial usa 3 tornillos especiales, ya que se requieren para fijar creo unas mangueritas del ABS. Entonces tuve que usar esos y los 9 tornillos nuevos. Los tornillos se quitan con dado 1/2" : no son ni 12 mm ni 13 mm. Torques segun el manual de servicio de la agencia Ford son: -Tapon de relleno del diferencial: 30 Nm o 22 lb-ft. -Tornillos de la tapa del diferencial: 45 Nm o 33 lb-ft. *OJO*: Este torque es solo si usas los tornillos originales ya que terminan casi en punta. Los que trae la tapa son normales, y sí requieren menos torque.

It's a nice, super heavy-duty cover, and it has the drain and fill plugs, which was the reason for the purchase. It makes servicing easy now. FYI, my research led me to believe that unlifted or small lifted trucks (2.5" max) should fill fluid to the bottom fill plug. However, I had to fill to the top of the fill plug because it started making noise and was obviously not filled enough. It took 5.5 quarts of fluid total. I have Bilstein level, 2.1" in the front, no lift or blocks on the back. The cover looks great and is a nice/functional upgrade. I also used the recommended LubeLocker for 9.75" Differential Cover Gasket and (12) 5/16-18X3/4 Stainless Steel Hex Serrated Flange Screws, Flange Bolts 304. Installed on a 2011 F150 Platinum: 100k miles. Old fluid was clean, and the rear end looked perfect inside —no shavings or sludge.

Was not able to find a replacement rear differential cover for a 2002 Ford Expedition to replace the original cover that had rusted through. Local salvage yards said it was too old. While this cover is more than was needed to stop the oil leaks, it fits perfectly. Used provided gasket and bolts without any more leaks. Bolts torqued to 25 ft lbs. Seems to be a good product.

The cover has excellent quality and looks great. It fits well and is easy to install. I’ve been using it for about a year now without any issues. The drain plugs make charging the fluid very convenient. I highly recommend it. . No need to pay twice as much just for a different tag.

Fit on my 2014 F150 HD like a glove. My package arrived without a scratch. I installed it with a lubelocker gasket and reused the factory bolts. Torqed the cover bolts to 15 then 30 foot pounds, fallowed lubelockers toque order. The fill/drain plugs I toqued to 25 foot pounds. No leaks. Went the extra mile and painted the axle and leaf spings. Great spring project. Looks so good! At this price you cant go wrong.
