Description
Banks Ram-Air differential cover extends lubrication life and retains fuel economy. Thanks to its superior fluid and aerodynamics, the Ram-Air Cover out-performs stock and flat-back high-capacity covers and does so with less lubricant. Increased distance between service intervals and less lubricant means you'll save money while extending gear life.
When it comes to product development, we only make products that increase performance and beat the competition. So when we tested the popular Diff Covers on the market, we were shocked to find out that they actually hurt performance. This lead to the development of something so New and Incredible that our performance design has a United States Patent.
Look, when we set out to build a product for your vehicle, we only engineer the best. What else would you expect from a company with a winning legacy that spans decades. We are here to win, and we just did (Again) in a huge way

One of the key highlights of this differential cover is its innovative design that features Ram-Air scoops for the fastest cooling performance. In comparison tests, Banks outperforms flat-back covers by cooling 5 times better during on-road towing tests, providing cold high-velocity air to overcome dead air zones behind the differential. The scoops force air up and into massive heat radiation fins, ensuring optimal heat dissipation for your vehicle's differential.
Constructed with high-quality materials and precision engineering, Banks Differential Cover Kit is built to last and withstand the rigors of demanding applications. The cover is designed to break away if snagged on an obstacle, ensuring the safety of your vehicle.
Furthermore, this differential cover features fluid dynamics enhancements such as lubricant guides to direct lube to bearings without overfilling, a design that mates flush with the housing for smooth fluid flow, and controls fluid flow to the pinion and bearings for efficient lubrication. With low fluid aeration, you can enjoy longer fluid life, reducing maintenance requirements.
The technical specs of the Banks 19258 Differential Cover Kit include a weight of 11.7 lbs, external heat radiation fin count of 24, and internal heat absorption fin count of 26. With dimensions of 14.2" x 13.3" x 3.8" and an external heat radiation total surface area of 533.782 in2, this cover is designed to optimize cooling performance.
Experience the power of Banks differential cover kit and enjoy the benefits of superior cooling efficiency, durable construction, and hassle-free maintenance.
