Take off the cover, clean out the diif and check for damage, buy a gasket or use rtv to seal it back up again. Fill through the hole

I thought it was too until I cut enough sheet metal to visibly see the nut - it's hex - it's just a larger size than the bolt head and larger than the wrenches I have.

When I flushed my diffs I put a little bit of gasket maker on the threads of the drain plugs. No more leaky.

I got a dual head unit and two speakers from Wally World for 60 bucks, everything works good, has an aux input so you can use your phone or iPod for music.
