Okay, put on two coats of JB Weld on the rosette weld that was leaking.


Drained differential, then cleaned weld and surrounding area till it was immaculate. Let the first coat cure before putting on the second, sanded then painted the repair. Looks good. If you did not look directly at it for a second or two you would never notice.

Owner drove till warm then treated it somewhat roughly (four speed) and as of today is not leaking.

I know it is only one test drive but I wanted to be sure and check back to let everyone know, at least initially, the repair was a success.

Thanks again everyone and I will try to remember to check back at the end of the summer after more miles have been put on the car.
