Full Version: tail cover gasket
is it best to use a cement with the gasket or just gasket alone. replacing broken tail cover (ear)
Did you measure the thickness of the old gasket(s)?
It would be recommended to replace it with (a) new gasket(s) of the same thickness. They can differ from transaxle to transaxle.

rrrr wrong. (close tho)
that is for the intermediate plate gaskets (other side of the plate) as they set pinion depth....
there is only one gasket for the rear housing....
use a NEW gasket and no sealent.

AA is correct. Touche'.
Hey, I did the exact same thing 3 weeks ago (both mounting ears broken). Bought a complete $25 gasket set for just ONE gasket 
Now I have every gasket needed except the tail collecting dust and metal filings on the workbench.
