Ford 8.8" 3/8" Differential Cover

This is our basic differential cover. The Ford 8.8 axle is easy to find in Ford Explorers, F150's, 4.0 liter Rangers, & a ton of Ford cars too.

  • FULLY BACKED BY A LIFETIME WARRANTY
  • Ring and the Cover are 3/8" thick
  • Plate steel cover bent 8 ways
  • Machined absolutely flat for a perfect fit
  • All seams welded inside and out
  • Bolt kit comes with (5/16) 12 point bolts with washers

The differential cover is a 1 piece 3/8" (.375") plate steel cap bent 8 ways then welded to a 1/2" ring. The fill plug is a generous 3/4" ID for easy fill and oil level check, it is located 1" above where the factory "should" have put it in a stock vehicle to account for pinion adjustment. One of the reasons it is so hard to hurt is that we manufacture it out of A50 Plate Steel, that's 50,000 PSI Tensile strength. After welding, the mounting surface is machined absolutely flat for a perfect fit!

This is a fully welded Ford 8.8 Diff Cover, welded inside and out and it will include a Fill Plug unlike many of the stock 8.8's.

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.

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
