At this point and with this thread though, it's plain to see we have a problem on our hands that isn't going away.

Hey Cheif!
Sorry for jumping in here late, but I'm curious. What did they replace with? Always cracks me up to hear how dealers "replaced" failed components. Replaced with what? Same part that will probably fail again?
I tow a 7000 lb TT about 4 weeks or so every year, and all I had was the baked rear diff lube back when it was factory. Since then I'm synthetic and have the aluminum cover, but if those rear ends are too small, I'm sure I'll have issues with it eventually.
