So when doing my spring hangers and shackles I noticed my diff cover was pretty crusty. Probably within a year it will be leaking. I know there is a debate on aftermarket covers causing lube and over heating issues. But I'm still thinking about doing an aftermarket cover.
Is there any that are better then the others? I see the finned Motorcraft aluminum cover... but I don't think I want aluminum.
I was actually looking at the ARB cover... it's pricey... but it looks cool and it is iron. It also has bearing cross bracing to stiffen the center section magnetic drain plug and includes the hardware. Anyone used one of these? Not many reviews to help me make a decision....
