Installation Instructions For Differential Covers

PML recommends RTV by Permatex for use sealing PML differential covers. RTV is readily available at most auto parts stores.

• Permatex 26B High Temp RTV for temperature ranges -75F through 650F
• Permatex 27B High Temp Sensor Safe RTV for temperature ranges -75F through 650F
• Permatex 6B Sensor Safe Blue RTV for temperature ranges -65F through 500F

For temperature sensors, PML recommends Autometer products. See www.autometer.com.

There are a few differential covers which do not yet have installation instructions on-line. Please call or email if you do not see the instructions for your differential cover.
