She caught it ONCE!LOL Awesome, hope they both do!!

she kept commenting on that, and I quote "Smells like rotten butt!"LOL I waited until she brought the pan up, sure enough she was correct!!LMBO

You know that moment when you realize age is finally catching up with you? Yeah, I refused to acknowledge that until this weekend. Changed out the differential oil, after listening to me grunt and groan just to get to the ground...........my Daughter jumped in, no prior experience, and successfully drained and refilled the diff this weekend. Less than two hour too! This car is staying in the family, she's a Packard fan now, working on my oldest son too!LOL

Thanks for the great info guys!!

I've thought about that too, not worried about doing it for that reason. the worst thing synthetic does is protect the parts better, and it isn't a ridiculously expensive option eihther, $18.99 2qts, why wouldn't you?

I am wondering if anyone has changed out their rear-end and tried synthetic? I have a 1951 Patrician and getting ready to, kind of curious if anyone has done this, and any pitfalls to worry about? Thanks in advance!

I knew someone would lose their mind about the trim, it is a Patrician-2452-4085. I have the chrome fender trim in the trunk, not having it on one side only. The substandard body work on the passenger fender, covered the holes for the trim on that fender

That's the hope!! I have the chrome for the fender in the trunk for both rear fenders, but this is the good side, the other is a mess of low-quality fender work.

Finally got my 1951 400 on the road again! The heat broke and so I took her out yesterday evening for about a 30 minute drive-all worth it!
