1. Computer optimized cross brace design increases the structural rigidity of the whole axle
2. Additional housing strength helps keep the ring & pinion gears meshing on the flat faces of the teeth, greatly increasing ring & pinion life and overall maximum load strength
3. Top quality, high power neodymium magnets are used in both the drain plug and the dipstick to collect metallic wear particles as the vehicle moves
4. Magnet location in the end of the dipstick allows the oil to be checked for tell-tale signs of internal damage
5. Prolonged carrier bearing life due to extra support to the bearing alignment
6. Approach/departure angle optimized by angled exterior surfaces
7. Unique dipstick/filler cap design allows differential oil level to be adjusted for customized high driveline angles

According to ARB, as of 3-20-08, they do not have plans to go through with the KJ diff cover within the year. The guy I spoke to said he just attended a meeting yesterday and ARB can not keep up with the current production of diff covers and they are falling behind more and more every day. He said they bought one milling machine, which can not keep up, so they bought another milling machine, and it can not keep up. Even though the guy seemed to know what he was talking about, I'm hoping that ARB will push through with the Diff cover for the KJ.
