Paint it anything but the lime green, yellow, or pink.

I have never seen one in blue, a nice dark blue.

Last time I talked to Josh at Crane, he said that the diff covers come painted (green color as shown in the photos). http://www.cranehiclearance.com/ I'm not sure if the Riddler comes painted or what??? Anyway, I'm going with Crane because Josh (the owner) will be installing my ARB front and rear lockers, so I had better buy his diff cover to make everyone happy.

There's a cover in this picture??? LOL

The one on the left looks like a man!! :shock:

Just my two cents worth: I seem to be in the minority but I put a Blue Torch Fab Works rear diff cover on my Liberty. I ordered through www.expertoffroad.com. (You can order it through Blue Torch but it is not assembled and would need to have all the pieces welded) So far so good. No leaks. Strong (3/8" steel). Looks pretty cool too. If I remeber correctly it was $130 plus shipping - so it seems to be in the same price range as what you're looking at.

Im planning on getting the Crane here in Dec when I get my rear locker, I like the fact that its all 3/8" and has a better plug and recess bolt holes

heres a picture of mine when i got it

i recommend taping off the threads on the bolts, and painting the heads(and the fill plug) with some rustoleum paint or some engine paint, mine have surface rust and i need to paint them, or get some stainless header type bolts

I have my Riddler finaly on & actualy tested it this past weekend, this thing is ROCK SOLID

now I have too paint it, I wasn't going too but it poured on our way back from a club ( local) ride, now it has SURFACE RUST on it & I'm not liking it

probably hit it with some steel wool then paint seeins it's on already

If my Poison Spyder RockRing ever fails me, I'll contact Marty for a Riddler.

I'd returned a leaky Ruff Stuff cover to Marty back in March....still waiting on a replacement Riddler....
