WELL MADE PRODUCT, QUALITY IS HERE.

Great product. This is my third cap, I have had two other Ram 1500's in the past and have used this cap. It's high quality and attractive. Lots of cool tech. The axle in my 2013 Ram 1500 now holds 5 liters of gear oil and the cooler works.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Cons

Well done, well designed.

Will buy more for another truck when money allows. The assembly is simple, the product is very well finished, the temperature of the stern when towing is reduced by 35 degrees. It holds more oil, but not at the expense of raising the fill hole, which would be wrong.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Nothing

Cover arrived early for me, couldn't wait. WOW, very nice case. Everything you need to get started was in the box. Installation was a breeze, I combined it with amsoil 75-140. My truck drives straight, I have a 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 hemi. Thanks very much! Good product.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Secret

Works great, fits perfectly.

Works good looks good fits perfect no leaks and now my rear diff runs a little cooler and definitely lasts longer. Some other reviewers had legitimate concerns that the spare tire (mounted under the pickup truck bed) could come in contact with this extended differential cover. I've checked it out and it doesn't look like it's happening even with the suspension going all the way down, but I haven't loaded up my truck yet to see what might happen, but it doesn't look like it right now ever happen

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Hard to say

2015 Ram 1500 4x4 with factory limited hatch rear 3.92. I had to loosen one side of the stabilizer bar to make room for it. The screws were easy to remove although I found that odd as they had 15mm screw heads. it comes very close to the panhard bar. But at least in my situation the wishbones were parallel to the ground and the truck was "at rest", any movement up or down would pull the axle towards the front of the car and increase the gap between the Mag-Hytec cover and the panhard bar .…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

Installed on a 1999 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4

Good product. I installed this cap after realizing my bearing was leaking and I never bothered with the lame bearing filler plug so I went with the Mag-Hytec rear diff cap. Fits perfectly and has a reusable O-ring 0 but there are a few issues. At first he only added half a liter, not 2 liters. Second, the knurling on the dipstick does not have a scale like "Full" or "Add" and is 1-1/2" longer on the dipstick than when it is full. Seals on the back, so you have to remove the small plug on the…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Don't remember

Chrysler 9.25 12 bolt diff cover for 04 Ram 4x4

Bought Mag-Hytec rear diff cover and transmission sump because I had to drive a lot of miles to work. Unfortunately, when I went to swap the diff cover for a new one, I was shocked by metal splinters on my magnet at the bottom of the diff. I ended up replacing the Chrysler locker with the couplers with a Detroit Trutrac without the couplers. It cost me about $1,500, but after owning the truck for over 10 years and having nothing but the usual maintenance issues, I didn't hesitate. The new cap…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Reliability

Top Quality, Made in America, Many Features

This was my first Mag-Hytec and I was so impressed I bought one for one Ford in my fleet. Sure, they're not cheap, but: If you ever decide to sell the car, you can probably take it off, pop the old cover, and sell it online for a decent price. Made in America! Well made and powder coated. Heat-dissipating fins and aluminum help when towing. Increasing the oil volume can also help extend the life of the oil. the probe is great. In addition to checking the fluid level, you can also check the…

Pros
  • Beautiful Packaging
Cons
  • Thin

NICE.Ahem.heck for diff cover

Mag-Hytec Chrysler 9.25 12 hole diff cover will definitely make my future diff fluid change easier not to mention cooler working diff with design and extra liquid capacity . He added about 1.5 pints or 3/4 liters. more Mopar 75w-140 Synthetic Differential Oil compared to the standard 4.5 pints 2 1/4 qt. The capacity brings different liquid capacity up to 6 pints or 3 quarts. This took exactly 3 liters including 4 ounces. Mopar Limited Slip Additive Be sure to add the recommended Mopar Limited…

Pros
  • Good product for its price
Cons
  • Pretty ok
