I would imagine you are expected to tighten the bolts back up after they have been loosened and the skid been pushed away from the diff.. But I have been wrong before.


..And tommudd - you know you want that polished one. :wink:

I agree with you about the diff covers, but what about the tranny pan. The stock one sucks!! The flange is paper thin and leaks horribly. Just wish someone makes an aftermarket one the clears the skid (stock capacity).

There was a very long post in the CRD section about those PML diff covers.You need to shave some of the back of those covers(the cooling fins) to fit on a KJ with a gas tank skid,someplace even was selling them already shaved,can't remember who though.
