Post subject: | Diff Cover Install Pics |
Just thought I'd share some pics of the cover on the Jeep. It's the Rock Lizard cover he offered awhile back that I powder coated and drilled and tapped for a temp sensor and larger drain plug. Changed the oil to Sever Gear 75W-140 and used a LubLocker gasket. We had to relieve both the left and right insides a little to make room for the cap tab brackets. All in all, it's a really nice, stout piece and I don't think a rock will peal it off. I'm getting a little excited because more nice stuff is coming real soon. Just waiting on some help from some friends in the technical department. Enjoy: ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I just bought one differential cover from Ruffstuff and it is just like that one, very heavy and made of #50 still. |

nescosmo, Before install, lay it on a flat surface to make sure the mating face is flat. Just sayin'. |

Does it provide for a larger oil capacity? |

Just a little bit more, about 1/3 Qt. I thought it would be more than that. I think the PML pan holds more, but I decided against it because it is aluminum. Can't afford to bust it on a rock. |
