mmm chips, jk the diff cover looks very rugged, how much did it run you?

lol more like mmm mud if you ask me.

it was 90 bucks, metalmacgyver on here built it and sent it to me, pretty happy with is so far but the best part will be next time i change my diff fluid i don't have to take the cover off.

Yepper, looks good, and I guess they're plenty flat enough! :icon_thumby:

Will get one myself if'n I ever swap in some 4.10s and/or lockers... 'til then, I just SUCK the fluid out with my $4 Sta-Lube hand pump, LOL...
 
lol, looks like it was time to change the fluid in the diff anyhow.
