Mag-Hytec has introduced a Dana 60 front differential cover that adds a quart of capacity over the stock cover (up from 3-3.5 quarts stock to 4-4.5 quarts). It is a perfect match in appearance and function to the rear differential covers. Perhaps the most important feature for off-road use of your four wheel drive Turbo Diesel is the angled ramp on the bottom half of the cover, instead of a flat mounting flange. The purpose for this ramp is that if you hit a rock or other obstruction on the trail, the differential will tend to ride up and over it instead of smashing the cover into the gears. Caution: Installation of the cover is just a bit more involved than for the other Mag-Hytec covers. You need to pop the driver’s side tie rod end loose from the steering knuckle to give clearance between the ring gear and the steering rod.
