Differential Cover

  High tensile, solid nodular iron differential cover. Ideal for competition rock crawling or use on extreme off road trails.

 


When off road, it is inevitable that obstacles and off road hazards will be encountered that could potentially inflict expensive damage to your differential. To prevent this, ARB manufactures the Differential Cover. Using high tensile nodular iron, it has been engineered to protect the differential and ring and pinion set from any off road hazards.


 
Coming in a red powder coat finish, the differential cover is available to suit a select range of differentials with further details available from ARB.


FEATURES
 

Computer optimised cross brace design increases the structural rigidity of the whole axle
 
Additional housing strength helps keep the ring & pinion gears meshing on the flat faces of the teeth, greatly increasing ring & pinion life and overall maximum load strength
 
Top quality, high power neodymium magnets are used in both the drain plug and the dipstick to collect metallic wear particles as the vehicle moves
 
Magnet location in the end of the dipstick allows the oil to be checked for tell-tale signs of internal damage
 
Prolonged carrier bearing life due to extra support to the bearing alignment
 
Approach/departure angle optimised by angled exterior surfaces
 
Unique dipstick/filler cap design allows differential oil level to be adjusted for customised high driveline angles

The computer optimised cross brace design increases the structural rigidity of the whole axle. This additional strength reduces housing flex which helps keep the ring & pinion gears aligned in perfect mesh (full tooth surface contact). This effectively increases ring & pinion life and overall maximum torque load. Reduced housing flex also means better carrier bearing alignment, which will greatly prolong the life of the bearings.

The combination of the high filler point and dipstick design also allows the differential oil level to be adjusted higher to compensate for customised high driveline angles.

Supplied with high tensile cap screws that are recessed into the cover for protection against obstacles that might damage or loosen them, the Differential Cover's drain plug has also been designed with a low profile to resist damage. All ARB Differential Covers come equipped with drain plugs, even for applications like Dana Spicer models that never actually came with a drain plug of their own.

One of the major features of the ARB Differential Cover is the top quality, high power neodymium magnets in both the drain plug and dipstick. These collect metallic wear particles from your oil as the vehicle moves. Removing the dipstick allows an easy infield check for water contamination (foam on the dipstick) or the tell-tale signs of internal damage (any larger particles which will also collect on the magnet), all without having to drain any oil.

To complete the design, all covers are finished in a red powder coat, CNC machined, and finally clear coated for a durable, professional, long lasting finish. ARB's Differential Cover is perfect for both competition and 4WDing use where harsh off road work is to be encountered. Our engineering team is currently involved in developing a range of covers to suit Dana 30, 35, 44 and 60 differentials, catering for vehicles including the Ford F250, Land Rover Defender, Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Cherokee XJ.
