Description

Ford 8.8" 3/8" Differential Cover

3/8" steel cover with 1/2" ring for Ford 8.8 axles

This Ford 8.8 cover uses a 3/8" plate steel shell bent eight ways and fully welded inside and out to an A50 steel ring. The sealing face is machined flat after welding for a leak-free fit, and the cover is built to handle impacts common to trail use. It fits Ford 8.8 axles found in Explorers, F-150s, Rangers, and various Ford cars.

A 3/4" ID fill plug is positioned about 1" higher than stock to accommodate pinion angle changes and make level checks easier. Hardware is included: 5/16" 12-point bolts with washers, ready for installation. The cover is backed by a lifetime warranty for long-term service.

Incredible Diff Cover

This thing is impressive! It's thick, heavy and fit perfect.

Be Aware!!!: This cover will require more gear oil than the factory cover. I think I ended up needing 4qts of oil when it was all said and done to ensure oil was getting to the wheel bearings.

Beefy unit looks great and will survive your wife driving over a large boulder. Only thing i will advise is not to use the inspection plug to fill the axle. I was about 2 quarts low when i checked it through the factory fill hole. Other than that its a good quality unit for a great price.

Impressive

I just received my cover I ordered from you guys and felt the need to contact you. All I can say is wow! I really wasn��t expecting it to be like this. Very impressive fabrication. Excellent welds. Perfect machining. I��ve already made a post about it on my truck page. Thank you guys for building an excellent product. Especially the brake work that had to be done to get geometry correct. I��ll be using it on a race truck but I can see why guys would love these for off-road use. You��ll never break that thing! You��ll snap the tubes off before you dent cover! Thank you again for such an impressive piece
