Liberty 8.25 Differential same as Dodge Dakota? -SIMPLIFIED-

So, some of you have read my differential milkshake post... I am going to replace the fluid today. I was looking at new differential covers that do away with the plug style access, and came across PML. They have a differential cover for the 8.25 Dodge rear differential/axle, but they did not know if it would fit the Liberty. Does anyone know if they are the same? I am at work and cannot compare the specs for the cover, but they list it on their website. Please let me know!! Here is the link:

So... this might simplify the question: Is there another Chrysler rear differential cover that has a threaded fill hole/bolt (instead of our rubber plugs) that will bolt up to our differential? This way I could grab one of those from a salvage yard...

I don't know the answer, but this is an excellent question that I'd like to see an answer to...

Here may be another option. Go to:

Check part number:

Much cheaper but no drain plug....

I belive that would work. As far as I know they come off of the same production line.

If your going to replace your diff cover this is the only way to do it.

Super Strong ....more fluid Capacity.... a drain plug....and no need for additional expense of diff armor.
