That was what I was trying to say, too.

This is the retaining compound that I was talking about. It may help with the old aluminum cover.
Bent would have better luck putting that on some accounts in this thread...
Well hell there should be a recall on it soon then.It came out of a Dodge

Likely as not. Already drove the cap back in

You shouldn’t have to, but if you welded a piece of strap on edge along the backside it won’t bend anymore. But I wanna know why it’s pushing out that hard....
We were discussing this point today. The helical cut on the gears will obviously have thrust forces, but if the shaft and gearset is assembled correctly, the force should contained on the front output shaft, correct? The rear bearing for the front output is just that little straight roller bearing, so it isn't going to do squat for thrust. Not to mention the aluminum cover.
So is the aluminum cover too worn in the bearing pocket to hold during heat cycles? But why would it bend the flat strap too?
So is there something out of whack in the front output shaft stack? Could the shaft push on the bearing without pushing on the aluminum cover?
Maybe it would only push out so far and then stay there. Might just be where it wants to run.
