Suprise suprise diff cover came in today had to do some paint of course. Figure it would take to long to do it anyother way so i did it by hand with a brush.

Best $81.90 i spent in a while. Nice and heavy has to be about 15lbs. I dont know how much heavier i would want this seems pretty 'solid':happy175:. Going to pursue some stainless steel fasteners if not paint these zinc plated that were supplied with the cover.

I'm looking to get one for my KJ and Ranger very soon. Where did you order yours? Looked like 64ish on their website with some sort of sale. Seems like a good deal. Had a "chrome" one on the Ranger that is very visible but now looks like crap.

I bought it from their website directly shipping is where its at $16.90. It is a deal in my book considering its made of the same material as the arb cover. I think the riddler was closest in price at like $125. Then the others are just outrageous too rich for my blood.

Tuff looking pan and excellent painting skills. No way I'd fill to that plug and have axle tubes and seals submerged in oil!

I cant wait for that might look weird at first with the 235 70 16s but i dont mind i want it and the money isnt there for both at first and my general grabbers should be good for a few more years.

Very tough. Mine took a few recent hits and it's holding up.

I jammed an extra pint or so into the KJ on the last diff lube change. (Stock cover still.) No ill effects. I do have a trace pinion seal and fill plug leak, so I wanted make sure I didn't run low.
