How does the increased oil capacity benefit my truck?

The aFe diff cover holds about 5 quarts of gear oil, which is more than the factory cover's 4-quart capacity. This extra oil helps to improve lubrication and cooling, especially under heavy use. Keeping the oil cooler extends the life of your differential components.

What is the purpose of the magnetic drain and fill plugs?

The magnetic drain and fill plugs are designed to capture any loose metallic particles circulating in the differential oil. This helps to prevent wear and damage to the gears and bearings. Regularly cleaning these plugs during oil changes will help prolong the life of your differential.

How do I prevent overfilling the differential when installing this cover?

This cover includes a 1/8" NPT calibration plug set to the factory fluid level. Once you've filled the differential, remove this plug. When oil starts to trickle out of the hole, you've reached the correct fill level. This eliminates the risk of accidental overfilling.
