Key Features

This differential cover combines functional design with durable materials to deliver superior performance and protection:

• Constructed from high-strength aluminum for lightweight durability
• Black powder coat finish resists corrosion and external elements
• Built-in internal and external fins transfer heat away from the oil for maximum cooling
• Magnetic drain plug captures loose metal particles, aiding in differential longevity
• Calibrated to maintain factory oil level, preventing overfilling
• Increased oil capacity supports longer service intervals and better lubrication
• Designed for easy installation with compatible bolt pattern

Construction & Design

The cover features a precision-machined aluminum body with integrated fins that optimize heat transfer. The durable black powder coat provides resistance against corrosion, dirt, and road debris, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh environments. The magnetic drain plug is strategically placed to attract and hold metal shavings, helping to keep the differential fluid clean and extend service intervals.

Driving Feel & Feedback

While primarily a protective upgrade, this differential cover helps maintain consistent differential temperatures, which can contribute to smoother operation and more predictable handling during demanding driving conditions. The enhanced cooling capability supports the vehicle’s drivetrain integrity, especially during extended off-road adventures or heavy towing.

Installation & Fitment

Designed for straightforward installation, this cover bolts directly onto the factory differential housing without requiring modifications. Proper torque specifications should be followed to ensure a secure fit and optimal sealing.

What’s Included

The package includes the differential cover, magnetic drain plug, and necessary hardware for installation. Additional sealing components are not included and should be sourced if needed.

Ideal For

This differential cover is ideal for off-road enthusiasts, overlanders, and anyone seeking to improve the longevity and cooling efficiency of their vehicle’s rear differential. It’s perfect for those who regularly tow, carry heavy loads, or drive in demanding conditions where differential heat and particle contamination are concerns.
