Rear Differential

[Mongoose107]

I have a 92' Gas Club Car, and about A week ago saw a small leak looks like from the differentail. Will like to replace the fluid anywas but noticed a missing bolt/nut. I posted some pics and could someone tell me which bolt goes there. Thanks.

I just had my rear out and apart last week. thought there was a bolt in there. I will go out and look in a few. Is the leak coming from that hole? When I Pulled off that section there was no fluid there. Once unit is off there is a seal for the shaft and gasket under a plate that seals the fluid into unit. post a pic in a few

Mine has a larger bolt to the front In that area
Could be slightly different i have a 84 .. I don't have that bracket.

It's a 5/16 NC x 1 or 1 1/4 put some type of thread sealer on the threads. I use the paste type. It will leak if it's missing or loose.

Thank you, I will purchase both types and see which one fits, then pull the bottom pug let it drain and then pull top and refill with 30w oil correct..

I used 80W90 gear oil in both the diff and the transmission on mine.

Got the bolts but 1/4 is two small and can't seem to get the 5/16 to catch an screw In. But did get a very close look and that is deffinaently where the leak is coming from. Will try again tommorrow, got the wrong oil will use the 80w-90

This stinks looks like the old bolt has broken off and still in ther so can't put a new bolt on..

time for good old jb weld to the rescue stuff the hole with cotton balls and then cover it with the jb so if you have to take the case apart its not welded together

That is what a dealer recommended but didn't know the life span of that, so going to bring it to the person I brought it from he will take it out and tap the bolt out and fix it back they say its about a two hour job..
