Without this mod ..... the oil can be slung off of the ring gear and directly into the vent hole ..... which will continously pump oil out of the rear end.

So we have installed 3 each barriers..... one to separate the ring gear side from the differential side of the spinning carrier..... one to stop oil that is coming off of the differential carrier .... one over the actual vent hole that only allows air to pass on 2 sides......

The major fence is the large one that is dividing the ring gear and differential.... that keeps the majority of oil on the gear side.

The oil that should be used is Mobil 1 75w140. this is the best oil we have tested and reduced our temp by 40-60*degrees. way better then all of the other products.

I've enclosed a photo to show that the one vent line is on top and the other line is oil cooler back in to flow oil where the ring and pinion meet.

The catch can runs clean now and no pressure from heat or motion.
