Buddy..........Welcome! First the differential question. The rubber plug is the "check/fill" hole. 90 weight gear lube should just run out of the hole after filling. I would take the cover off and check for metal shavings, clean and inspect the gears and bearings you can see, If all ok, would straighten the "diff cover" and "RTV" to seal it. Now "WHAT" are you going to do about the "bent" front frame member? At least it looks bent from the pic's. Thanks for the pic's....It really helps. Keep us posted Dave
