Well considering that's what your supposed to do... the cherokees didn't have a gasket when they came from the dealer. The dealer used RTV also. What the PO probably failed to do was tighten then let it sit for the hour and then add fluid. The PO might has tightened and then immediately added fluid. Your supposed to tighten the diff cover down right away. How else would the RTV get into the small defects/divots/craters some have in the carrier housing and the cover?
but then again, I probably have seen 1-2 people use RTV properly.

Pressure washed the outside and under the hood. And by that, I mean I sprayed the clumps off it cause the boss is visiting soon, and I was told it can't be sitting in the parking lot covered in mud.
