So its slow at work and I was board so I was googling things for my SAS and I came accross this diff cover. I probably end up with the ARB cover but thought this was neat and I have yet to see anyone with this.

With the amount of abuse that I have seen Ben's diffs take that doesnt really seem like the best idea to me. Although I will admit that it looks pretty cool

Yeah thats what I was thinking. It says it been tested to be just as strong. I guess you could do that and one of the cage style protectors and be safe. Its really just more of a hey thats pretty cool type thing.

Another cheaper option with the new reusable gasket.

how would you fill the diff with that clear one? i've put some oil in through the air breather before.. but i couldn't imagine putting two and a half quarts through the breather. The Arb and crane covers are my favorite by far...

Looks like there's a fill plug there, but when looking at the rest of their pictures I don't see any other fill plugs. It also doesn't mention anything about HP vs LP for the D44 cover.
Ah well, not going there anyway :D
