Finished the differential oil change. Sealed two pinion bearing cover bolts since there was a "slight" film of oil. I do not like anything showing film or stains...
Bought a McNaught oil pump to suck the gear oil from the bucket and into the diff. It was also easy to drain and magnetic plug had no tell tale signs of anything concerning. Felt good to get this out of the way. Took the old oil to the auto parts store recycling tank. Job done. Next up is coolant replacement as well as lower radiator hoses since they seem swelled up from age.
