LubeLocker Diff Gasket

I was watching Truck or HP TV on Paramount this past Sunday and they used a LubeLocker Diff cover gasket. I was intrigued, so I looked them up. Not a bad price at $22 bucks. I have always used RTV, but this is reusable. Looks like they have trans pan gaskets as well. Has anyone used these?

I used them on my 98 xj 4x4. Never had an issue with them leaking a drop. Didn't change the diff fluid before selling, so I can't speak to the reusability on the long term, but they were solid construction and definitely seemed built to last

Yes and they work pretty well. Just make sure the cover you are using is flat. The older thin tin covers tend to have warpage after 50 years

Thanks for sharing this. I may be looking at getting one. For my TH350 I used one and it worked great! Impressed by them.

Thanks all! I was intrigued by these. I am using an original cover for my 72 that is not super straight, so I will use RTV, but I may give them a shot on my 80e trans pan.

I used one on my Dana rear diff and my th400 tranny pan using both original covers and they sealed awesome. I will never use another style gasket. Wish they made these for sb chevy engines.
