So has anyone found a resolution to the diff boiling over I have been having this issue since installing the Wavetrac. We re installed the diff with the rite side C clip moved to the proper position and I have put in the 75-140 gear oil that Wavetrac recommended but it's still boiling over to the point that my entire bumper and trunk lid is covered in oil, I'm at a loss as to what the fix is.
