Pics of the install would helpful. (Becoming a supporting member would fix your ability to post photos and PM)
FWIW... There is an alternate opinion as to the work done at F-Body Central. See these threads: http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums...ml#post1272347 http://www.cadillacforums.com/forums...ml#post1291659

So far mine has only leaked a couple times as well (knocking on wood) 
Maybe this should be set up as survey instead . . .  |

'05 V, with overdriven maggie, and no problems with the rear differential. I wish it would fail, as the '06 differential is superior (perhaps not by much, but it's better).
No matter what, however, the differential is a complete POS. |

11,000 miles on my '07 with 400 rwhp and no problems. I have launched mine at 2000 rpms a few times and occaisionally get into a little wheel hop, still no leaks or breaks. Oh, I can't hear any whine over the B&B. | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
