Curious what brand etc RTV do you guys use for a after market diff cover? Do not want to keep resealing it but one time.

I used to run the high temp red rtv but swtched to the grey stuff because it easier to get off and seals just as good. I only use permatex because its easy to find and its never given me trouble.
 
Permatex black.

Or use copper spray gasket on both sides of a gasket and button it up.
 
Permatex Ultra Black Maximum Oil Resistance RTV Silicone Gasket Maker part # 22072 advance auto? but get the big tube!
 
Right stuff it is then for the Barnes 13 bolt cover! Will stop after work tomorrow and grab some from the local parts store.
 
how many oz bottle should i get for the 13 bolt diff cover. there is 7.5 oz,5 oz etc.
 
the small one should be fine if that is all your doing
