Leaky locker

[paulb001]

So I caved in my front diff cover on a rock and pushed the copper air line from my arb slightly into the carrier so it wore a small hole in the line. I really don't want to tear down my entire diff to replace that line. Any one ever had this problem or have any ideas?

Maybe a coupler like what is on a mechanical oil pressure switch will do it. It tightens over the line like a sleeve and has compression fitting to make it not leak.

you can retube the air ring . but its silver solder and $$$ . must be off the carier also so you don't burn the orings .

and you need one of these for next time

Yea, I replaced both diff covers soon after I caved that front one. I was thinking about compression fittings I just don't know what size or even where I can find one that freakin' small.
