Dana 30 3/8" Differential Cover

• Ring is 1/2" and the Cover is 3/8" thick
• Plate steel cover bent 8 ways
• Machined absolutely flat for a perfect fit
• All seams fully welded inside and out

This is our basic differential cover, we see it as the only one worth making. The D30 came in a few different trucks but it primarily came in Jeeps, from the Jeepster in the late 60's, through most of the CJ5, CJ6, & CJ7 years, throughout all of the different Wrangler variations (YJ & TJ), Cherokees (XJ), and of course the Early Broncos. The D30 axle is actually a pretty good little axle if you don't get carried away with too big tires. 

One of the questions we get regularly is about the tie rod clearance, it is ~3/4" and it clears all of the D30 axle setups we have encountered. 

This Differential cover is a 1 piece Plate steel cap 3/8" (.375") thick bent 8 ways then welded to a 1/2" ring, we had to make it thicker to make enough room for the thickness of the cover, it just happens to make it 30% stronger too! The fill plug is a generous 3/4" ID for easy fill and oil level check. This is arguably the strongest Diff Cover made for a Dana 30 axle.
