Subject: Diff cover for the 8.24"???
IP: Logged

Message:
Has anyone seen a cast-type differential cover for the Dakota 8.25" rear-end??? I like the Mag Hi-Tech jobs but they are only made for the larger diffs and are VERY pricey.

I like the fins, drain plug, and increased capacity, just gotta find one for the Dak. Thanks!

Those MoltenImage covers are wild. Not quite what I had in mind...but cool anyway! :)

yeah I know just felt like rattling a cage, would chomed steel do it for you, Mopar performance has one in their catalog, the ones on the web site previously mentioned look sorta cool too. I went through jegs and summit but all they have is for gm.

I'm not going for looks as much as a drain plug and increased capacity.

I may check with a local machine shop who's done some other Aluminum projects, maybe a custom setup is in order. Worst case, Summit sells a do-it-yourself drain plug for the steel pan.

It's gonna get RedLine when I get the cover on, so the increased capacity is just icing on the cake.
