• Q: How to Maintain and Fix a Differential Cover on 2009 Dodge Viper?

  A: If you wish to service the differential cover, drain the rear axle lubricant first. After that, remove the rear axle differential and put it on a workbench. After that, remove the nine differential cover bolts and replace them with new ones. Scrape both the differential cover and housing sealing surfaces with a plastic gasket scraper and wipe with Mopar(R) Brake Parts Cleaner or another similar item. Use a can of compressed air or clean towels to remove excess liquid from the surfaces and use the compressed air to guide it through each rear cover bolt hole in the differential to remove any contaminants. It is also necessary to clear each sealing surface on the differential housing and cover of any gasket material to avoid harming them.
