I have personally had something like this happen. During my college years I had a full width axle Jeep YJ for an everyday driver. I backed into a big rock one weekend and bent the factory diff cover into the ring gear. You can imagine what happened, the ring gear rubbed a hole through the diff cover. As luck would have it I found out about the failure an hour into a 3 hour drive back to college. If there had been heavy duty diff covers available back then the problem would have never occurred. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI started another company (Blue Torch Fabworks) in 2001 and one of the first products I designed and offered was fabricated heavy duty diff covers. The diff covers we developed back then spread across the offroad market quickly. Now many different companies manufacture similar covers. Some claim all sorts of things about their covers. I have been building them for close to 20 years. I stand behind the diff covers we manufacture here at Motobilt. Our warranty on them is simple... if you break it we will replace it. Take a look around at the Motobilt Diff Covers. We have a variety to choose from covering the popular axle housing. If you have any questions please contact us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Motobilt diff covers are manufactured in house. We design each of the covers in a 3D CAD design program to ensure proper fit.

["2.5 ton Rockwell","diff cover","diff skid","Motobilt","rockwell","skid plate"]
The Motobilt Rockwell 2.5 Ton Axle Diff Cover Skid is designed to take abuse. The cover is laser cut and formed from a combination os 3/8” and 1/4” high strength steel plate. The curved 3/8” steel ring around the bottom of the ring gear is “bump bent” on the press brake to provide a smooth surface to slide over obstacles like rock and mud. The side caps over the carrier bolts are laser cut and CNC formed from 1/4” steel plate. The main ring that welds to the housing is laser cut from 3/8” steel plate. The cover ships welded inside and out to your door bare steel.
Installing the diff skid is straight forward. Remove the center diff from the Rockwell housing and then cut the bottom rounded dome off. Position the diff back in and rotate the axle so you can see where to place the diff cover / skid. Tack in place and then remove the 3rd member from the housing. Weld completely. The ring gear does not need to be machined down for the cover to fit onto the Rockwell 2.5 ton axle housing.
The Motobilt Rockwell 2.5 Ton Axle Diff Cover / Skid does not include a drain plug. Our thought is this is a failure point when rock crawling. We do offer an optional bung and plug that the installer can drill out the cover and install if needed.
Motobilt fabricates all of our products including fabricated diff covers in house utilizing our 10k fiber laser and CNC press brakes. Our fabricated diff covers have a lifetime warranty. If you damage our diff cover we will replace it. Made in the USA.
