Diff Cover Gaskets
Differential cover gaskets seal the interface between the diff cover and housing, keeping gear oil contained and preventing leaks that can lead to premature bearing wear or total axle failure. Replacing a worn or damaged gasket during a fluid change is straightforward preventive maintenance for any rear-wheel or four-wheel drive vehicle.Popular Diff Cover Gasket TypesOptions include reusable silicone gaskets for Dana 44 and Dana 60 axles, OEM-replacement rubber gaskets for GM 10-bolt and 12-bolt differentials, and RTV-sealant-compatible paper gaskets for Ford 8.8 and 9-inch applications. Billet diff cover upgrades often include a matching formed gasket or integrated seal surface.How do I know when my diff cover gasket needs replacement?Signs include gear oil seeping around the cover perimeter, a low diff fluid level with no other visible leak source, or contamination around the cover bolts.

Jeep CJ5 Parts and Accessories
Choose Jeep CJ5 spring, shackle and brake-service components by exact year and installed chassis. Broad CJ naming does not establish every spring width or mounting position. Shackles and Hanger Dimensions Match actual spring width, bushing dimensions, front/rear position and frame attachments. Preserve exact CJ5 production coverage when comparing earlier and later components. Compare greasable shackles, frame hangers and bushings as separate pieces. A CJ7 or 2.5-inch-spring title needs explicit support for the actual CJ5 installation. Brakes and Exterior Mounting Match drums, pads or cylinders to actual brake assembly and hydraulic interfaces. Record axle and brake conversions with the original vehicle details. For bumpers, compare frame mounting and exact model/year application. A Wrangler YJ title is insufficient to establish CJ5 fit; review brackets and hardware expressly supplied. Choose Your Part Record exact year and chassis modifications.

Shop Jeep CJ7 floor protection, spring hardware and steering-support options by exact year and installed chassis. Record suspension or frame changes before checking the selected application. Floor Coverage and Leaf-Spring Hardware For floor protection, match actual floor, seats, retention points and any supplied heat shields. A shared Wrangler/CJ7 title still needs exact interior coverage. Match shackles and hangers by spring width, bushing dimensions, front/rear position and frame attachment. Compare individual pieces with complete kits by supplied contents. Steering Brace and Bumper Application For a steering-box brace, confirm actual box, frame mounting and manufacturer coverage. A brace supports the specified installation rather than replacing worn steering components. For bumpers, preserve exact CJ7 application and compare mounting brackets and hardware. A Wrangler YJ title alone does not establish frame compatibility. Choose Your Part Record exact year and chassis modificatio...

Find Jeep Scrambler steering, brake and suspension options using exact CJ8 production and installed equipment. Compare shared CJ7 applications component by component. Steering Support and Leaf Springs The listed CJ7/CJ8 steering-box brace needs its exact chassis and steering-box mounting application checked. A brace supports the mounting arrangement and does not repair worn steering internals. Select leaf springs by supported vehicle, mounting position, eye dimensions, width and intended suspension height. Shared CJ7 wording should not be extended to every CJ8 spring installation. Brake and Lighting Interfaces Match front rotors and pads to the installed hub/caliper assembly, dimensions and axle position. Identify brake conversions before selecting service parts. For seven-inch headlamps, compare housing and retention, connectors, voltage and supported functions. A later JK application does not establish a complete Scrambler conversion package.
