I have a Mag-Hytec pan, same one used in the 545RFE/65RFE trans. Holds two additional quarts over the stock pan.

For the differentials on 2014+ 2500's the sway and track bars present problems. AEV conversions has released both a front and rear cover but adds no extra capacity but does give the ability to drain and refill easier. I have put both on mine and like them.

PML is currently prototype testing a new rear cover that adds about an additional 1/2 quart with a expected ship dates starting October 2016.

I had Mag-Hytec trans Pan and diff cover on my 13. Was very satisfied with both. Good products, well made but not cheap. Transferred the diff cover over to my 16.

Or just pull the damn cover...
Yes, that is a viable option and one I would normally use. I didn't know these aftermarket items were in the price range they are.

I agree, pricey if just for a drain plug. To be fair though AEV does not market them just for that reason and more for the serious off road environment.
The main problem is RAM when with a different suspension setup on the 2014+ HD's and severely limit the access to the rear differential cover and does not give much dimensional room for aftermarket covers and especially those with extra capacity.

I signed up for the email list for the PML stuff, but haven't received any kind of info since I did that a week or so ago...the AEV stuff is expensive, and I don't see where it says anything about extra capacity. I don't need anything extra HD for off-roading since I do zero of that. I just want easier draining and more capacity to keep it cooler.
Are AEV and PML the only options for the 6.4 with the rear bar that's in the way?
