So I'm about to check and top off my rear differential fluid and am wondering how tight should the fill plug be on the rear cover? Thanks!

Re: HO52 Question
Same as any other diff cover fill plug.... snug it by hand, firm it up with a wrench, then whack the end of the wrench with the heel of your hand. Old school and not an exact answer but it has always worked for me.

Re: HO52 Question
Thanks Mike. That's pretty much what I did to before you replied to. Never did anything regarding a rear differential so it's always better to be safe than sorry.

Re: HO52 Question
You should drain it put in new grease.
