I got my diff cover today from Dan over at Ruff Stuff. I'll tell you what I wasn't sure he would follow through on his promise just because I had never purchased anything from him and he said he was going to swap out my used cover I bought from bugnout for a brand new one. Well it only took 2 days to get it after he received my old one and I can tell the work on the new one is superior to the work on his old one. The welds are cleaner for one and the whole thing looks like it has been straightened out as far as quality control goes. Not that the old one was bad I guess, but the new one sure is purdy. Anyway, I can't say enough about Ruff Stuff customer service. This cover is bad a@@ too. I was going to buy the Riddler from Marty over at Rock Lizard but $60 (incl. shipping) for my brand new cover can't be beat so I can't complain for sure. Going to prime it tonight and if I have time I will put a bunch of red paint on it as well to finish it off. I am going to wait to install it unfortunately because I am going to slap an Aussie Locker in there as well so I figure I'll just wait and kill two birds with one stone. I'll post pics of the paint work. So thanks to Bugnout and Dan over at Ruff Stuff, you guys made my day.

How about a pic of the inside and outside before you paint it.

Too late. I can still get an inside pic with no paint though. Still interested?

Here it is with some primer that isn't quite dry yet.

And the RED:

Gotta love the recessed bolts and drain hole.

I haven't painted the fill plug black yet either but I am.

Looks good. I like the contrast of black bolts with red cover.

Thanks, sorry I forgot to get you an inside cover shot. I'll ad it later.

Free is always nice. Yeah, I am glad I got lucky (despite what some might think :wink:

) that bugnout had the recessed bolt holes and drain plug.

Thank you Dan! I appreciate everything. The cover is awesome and as soon as the locker is here I will post pics of it installed.

Mine was delivered last week - very fast response time from when I placed the order, especially when you consider that it had to be sent to England! First class service from this company - can't praise it too highly:) I've also got the drain plug and recessed bolts, and I've now sprayed it with several coats of gloss black. It is an impressive piece of kit and feels like it could take a direct hit from a cannon! I'll be fitting it in a couple of months when the car is out of manufacturers warranty.

Cool Lancer, post some pics when you get it all done. I am still waiting on a Aussie locker to come out before I put mine on. Then I will post the final installed pic.

Glad to Mike:) I'll be having a few other bits fitted as well with any luck, including a snorkel, so I'll post photos when everything is on. I'm waiting to see what Rocklizards Tortoise armour looks like (and weighs) as well as his new front bumper. I definitely want his rear bumper with wheel and can mounts! Also want a Frankenlift and A Arms - but need to get the money together. An ARB locker is on it's way already:)))
