Mark a spot on the top of the outside shell of the differential

housing as shown in Figure 8.


Figure 8.

Cover the drive pinion and axle tube areas with a rag to protect

them from metal filings.

Drill through the housing square to the outside surface using a

11.2mm [7/16”] drill.

Tap the hole from the outside using a ¼” NPT pipe tap.
Remove any sharp edges from the hole that may chip-off and fall

into the housing.

Carefully remove the rags and inspect with a service light inside the

housing to insure no metal filings are left behind.
