I wanted to make the forum aware of a quality fabrication shop in York, PA, who makes steel diff covers (and other things as well).

Since I recently picked up a brand new Torq locker, I figured I should upgrade my diff cover when I put that in. I found Dr.Z while searching for diff covers and figured I would support a local fabricator rather than a corporation. His work is really good:

The diff cover can be ordered fully welded like mine, or discounted if you weld it yourself. My little HF welder can’t do 1/4 plate so I had him put it together for me. After it came today, I primed it and then painted it this red to match my JBA upper control arms:

Not sure what I think about having a red diff cover, but I’ll give it a shot! I figured it was more fun than painting it black like everything else. :)

Red is good. Then you can look back and see the smears on that boulder you got hung on. ;)

Good point! A Jeep’s instinct is to mark its territory.
My over the top red on Bert’s armor saved my but.t numerous times. Always being solo with no spotter I could easily see what and where I was getting hung up, thus being able to adapt and adjust.
