Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1061835 Rear Differential Cover is a heavy-duty upgrade for Dodge trucks equipped with the Dana 70 rear axle. Designed to replace the thin factory stamped cover, this BD Diesel cover increases oil capacity, improves cooling, and provides superior protection for hard-working diesel trucks used for towing, hauling, and off-road applications.
Constructed from thick, cast aluminum, the BD Diesel Dana 70 cover adds rigidity to the differential housing while helping dissipate heat more efficiently. A magnetic drain plug captures metallic debris, and the built-in fill port simplifies servicing. This is an ideal upgrade for high-mileage trucks or vehicles that see sustained load and heat.
