You are in luck - a standard 8.8 cover fits on all the 8.8 front diff's.
I bought mine from a company called Purple Cranium.

I have thought about this but I really have no justification for it with my truck. I have not been in a situation where 4x4 and the elocker couldn’t get me through.
i am planning on doing a trutrac in the Dana 30 in the front of my Jeep Liberty, just trying to decide if I wanna go trutrac or locker in the rear.

If they would have made one for my truck it would have been my first choice, although I'm glad I put in the one engineered for Ford 1/2 tons.

I also found out years ago in my olde Power Wagon with a locker, locked out in 4X4, it helped to purposely get the tires broke loose in mud/snow, so the bloody would turn.
I do know guys with spools in their cars, they have a bit of a time keeping tires on them.

For extreme stuff locked is best. For general road use LSDiffs and lockers sound cool but rarely are an improvement over 4x4 and traction control. Letting the TC brake the spinning wheel has the exact same effect as letting the differential do it and in most case is more effective since it can brake one side to a stop if need be. I have owned and wheeled lots of rigs with full lockers. One of the most impressive though was open front and rear with sophisticated traction control, I liked that a LOT better than the Power Wagon I had.
Just be careful what you wish for.
