I don't know if this is any help, but I have got an extra tube of Permatex "Prussian Blue" gear marking compound that is specially formulated for just that purpose, I'll send it to you for nothing if you are interested. But let me add one other point: I bought a new 1989 Mustang G.T. 5.0. For the first 60,000 miles, the rear end was silent. After that, it started making noise. I took fantastic care of that car. Didn't drive it the way most people would drive such a car. Long story short, after endless problems with noise with new gears and a complete professional rebuild, I obtained the help of a trusted local dealer mechanic. He was able to determine that the factory, when it set it up, had installed the wrong thickness shim for the pinion depth. The other "professional" who installed the new gears, just replaced the same shim that came on it, thus perpetuating the problem. Once we installed the correct (thinner) shim, the noise disappeared, and I drove it another 120,000 miles before selling it to a friend, who is very happy with it. No rear end noise now, and the car has almost half a million miles on it. Good luck. Hugh

When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
