Front differential on extreme recon

[Rakkasans]

So from earlier models the front differential had a drain plug on the bottom and now they have removed that due to excessive damage to the plug. Is there any recommendations on what I should use for gasket? Reusable gasket or no?

Permatex right stuff. I put that shit on everything.

My jeep came with a lube locker reusable gasket from the factory, lube lockers were like $30 each when I bought them for my other truck.

The Spicer diff covers I got came with a tube of gasket maker so I reboxed the factory stamped covers & gaskets & will reuse them if I ever have the need.

Thank you! I’m going to go get some so I can switch out the fluid in the front even though I don’t have to at this point.14,000 miles. I just switched out the rear to amsoil 75w-90 for a bit more protection than factory.
