Poison Spyder42-11-044-PC Dana 44 Diff Cover - Pc

Very heavy duty and it can take a hit (tested in Moab and it shrugged off a major knock). Fit is excellent.

I like the design and the strength of these diff covers. They are a solid value for the money and I think they look great too. I put them on the front and rear of my Rubicon. They do lack a place to reinstall the brackets to hold the connections for the lockers, but I made due. The installation was simple. I made sure to wire brush the mating surface, and follow the instructions on using the provided silicon and torque specs. I did not use the new plugs they provided due to them not having a magnet, and my old ones did, and they threaded right in. I have had no issues with leaking and they seem like they are ready for some abuse. They are way stronger than stock.

What else can I say about Poison Spyder other than the fact that i love there products. I've built multiple rigs now on our YouTube Channel (Jeep Noob) and every build includes their products. Now if they would only sponsor us. lolBut seriously this is an extremely heavy duty dif cover and we started purchasing them even before they started offering a powder coating option for them. This only makes it better. While we always custom paint them anyways its really nice to have a base coat on them. In this case we did a basic red addition so it was nice that it was already black.The instal is extremely easy and most of the torque specs are in the 25-30 LBS range. Knock on wood but we have never ran into any issues with them and they fit perfectly. They are also cut just slightly higher than the dif itself so that it doesn't have the opportunity to get hung up on rocks. Not that I would worry about that anyways if it did.If you want something to protect your rig then spend a little money on something besides colored neon lights and pick these up. You can bash them to hell and you'll continue to keep running while looking like a badass.

Replaced both of mine with these, and totally love it.

I'll admit, I went with this cover because of the spider and that I could customize it by painting it to match my Jeep. That being said, the quality is amazing and they are very substantial. Beastly to paint though, as masking off the spider is pretty difficult. You don't wanna get too close to my rattle-can paint job, but from a distance when driving behind me, I think it looks pretty great.

I love the style of these and they look great, front and back (Wrangler Rubicon JK). Haven’t had any rock hits, but they seem very, very sturdy. They fit slightly smaller than the diff housing, by design i believe, to prevent being peeled off if snagged on rock. The bolts in yellow zinc give it a nice accent...however...the ones included were not good quality. I had three of 10 stretch when torqued to spec, which was extremely frustrating, so had to dock them a star. I threw the bolts out on the second cover and bought some grade 8 replacements locally. Fortunately they were available and not expensive.

I bought 2 of these for my rubicon's dana 44 differentials and installed them over the weekend. They were very easy to install, and having never done it before, I took my time and both took me about an hour each. That includes draining the diffs, scraping off the old gaskets, installing the diff covers and lube lockers (which I also highly recommend), all 10 bolts in each, torquing them down to 30 ft lb each, and filling the diffs. Did it in the garage with a regular rachet/socket, torque wrench, and used an air impact to remove the bolts. Another thing I really liked about the Poison Spider covers was that they came with Grade 8 hardware. My buddy's more expensive ARB's came with something less and he busted a bolt in the case on install. All in all it was one of the easiest things I've done to the Jeep, and I highly recommend these covers. I like that the edges of the covers don't go completely to the edge of the housing. This way you can't peel them back like the stock covers if you get hung up on rocks. Not that I'd worry too much about that with these heavy duty covers, but it does give additional peace of mind.

Installed these on both my front and rear axles. They are very heavy duty and can take a beating on the rocks. RTV and new bolts are included which makes installation very easy.
