Before you install a cover
A differential cover protects the gears and bearings inside the housing from rocks, mud and water while it also holds the gear oil. Covers on trail-driven Jeeps see impacts from the underside, so the mounting flange and bolt holes take a lot of load over time. Before buying, match the cover to your axle family and confirm that the bolt pattern and mounting surface line up with your housing.
When fitting a steel or iron cover, clean the flange thoroughly and install a fresh gasket or sealant as your setup requires. Torque the bolts evenly in a cross pattern so the cover seats flat. Recheck the bolts after the first few trail runs, and look for seepage around the seam.
- Clean the housing flange before installation
- Torque bolts in a cross pattern
- Check gear oil level after fitting
- Inspect for dents and cracks after trail use
