Aluminium Differential COver
Whats anyones thoughts on these? They dont seem cheap but are they worth it? I dont do a lot of towing but I do have the rear end chatter and was thinking about changing to one of these when I change the fluid in the spring. Any favorites out there?

I have a mag hytec diff cover. I changed my gears to 4.10s so I figured I might as well get a cover that holds twice the amount of oil as stock, and it has a dip stick. It's unnecessary, but it looks good and I know my rear isnt gonna over heat. If your hearing noises o recommend at least changing the oil, I run royal purple its great oil, that or Lucas. Only way to go. Gear oil is expensive tho so heads up

Ya Mobil synthetic is pretty good stuff, I am just an avid royal fan, I use it in all my cars, if your planning on having that truck for a while its only better for it..it needs 75w-140,stock diff holds 2.5 quarts and mag hytec takes 5 quarts I believe

No prob. After you put those pics up I actually looked at them for a couple of mins, and decided that I want one now, but I'm hoping to get one with a drain screw so I don't have to pull the whole cover off every time I change the fluid.
