If there's a thread already, I'm sorry. I didn't see any specifically. Just curious about what diff covers people have tried so far. I am looking at the RockCrusher one for me. Anyone have any input?

i have the rock crusher one. i dont think it would fit with the stock trackbar, if it does it would be entirely too close for comfort in my opinion.

Pics? How close are we talking? Any advice on how to help this problem? I like the RC one because it is "finned" pretty well. (helps cooling).

ill go dig the trackbar out of storage and see how close it would actually be. im just guessing by looking at it with the JBA trackbar and rockcrusher cover. the stock trackbar is quite a bit wider, which you could have narrowed down in the center or something to still make it work.

alright, i held the stock trackbar in place to check for clearances. its not as wide as i remembered it being. there is about 3/8" between the trackbar and rockcrusher. while there isnt much of a gap i dont see the trackbar moving any closer to it under flex so you should be alright.

guess i take back what i said before. :lol:

Cool. If you're the only one with the input on this then I'll take it and go. (with the RC that is.)


Thanks man. Very much appreciated. I just think the RC cover would keep the rear diff cooler, thereby extending it's life.
