Well I was off road in my p wagon yesterday when a buddy noticed my front diff cover had a huge dent in it. Luckily it isnt hitting the gears at all. However i want to still get it replaced. So my question is does anyone know of any good places to get diff covers. I dont want to spend a lot but Ill go with something that isnt stock. it the front AAM 9.25 axle

Sounds like a good time to upgrade to a Mag-Hytec diff cover. They are not cheap though

I'm glad to see you are using the PW for what it was made for. Most PW are just street queens

I could be wrong but pretty sure mag-hytec would have been dominated as they are aluminum. Get steel or something with guards over the aluminum or no advantage for strength.

Alright guys I finally got my cover changed. I went with a stock cover cause I dont see paying $350-500 for a cover that wont fit right lol. Everyone says the are to big, but any ways I picked this one up for $26!! Dodge wanted $180! so its all together now. I ordered the superlift rock crusher to go on the outside of the stock cover. Has anyone looked at the factory diff fluid? It looks like ****!. Its dark green and grey and looks real runny for 80-90. I just swapped it for royal purp syn. The rig has one little scratch from the cover caving in but no damage really. here is a pic. Right in the middle of the ring gear you can see light scratches
