: What has a thick D44 diff cover?
1MutCJ7 12-07-2001, 01:52 PM The diff cover that came on my Chevy D44 is paper thin. What has a thick cover that I can get from a dealership(unless there is somewhere else I can get one). Don't say PNP because I already tried and they drill them here.
The Rockslut 12-07-2001, 02:07 PM Not sure how much they are at PNP but for $15 I'll send you one.
WheelingPiazza 12-07-2001, 02:44 PM Chevy fronts are like 15 bucks at P and P but you have to find a big lot where they dont drill them
The Rockslut 12-07-2001, 02:49 PM There you go, and mine is clean with no holes and no sales tax :D
Fullreversal 12-07-2001, 02:57 PM ive never heard of boneyards drilling diff covers. Why?
The Rockslut 12-07-2001, 03:01 PM They do it to train the fluids, before the car goes out into the yard. PNP does it to everything, tanks, oil pans etc
James K 12-07-2001, 03:14 PM Bought two from pnp with holes. Got them home fired up the welder and filled the holes. Not that hard:D
WheelingPiazza 12-07-2001, 03:21 PM I even think that would be a good oppertunity to make the cover more beefy, Like putting a 1/2 think piece of plate over the hole etc..

Yeah, I thought about that, but that would be a pretty expensive diff cover after I bought the welder and then a house with a garage to put the welder in :D j/k
I'll take yours Rockslut. Email me your address.
Andy 911 12-07-2001, 04:07 PM Go to a dodge dealer and get one for a ram 1/2 ton front, they look pretty thick, 3/8" or so. I've never seen a boneyard drill them before.

Do you know how much they go for?

My D44 front is a narrowed GM and it's paper thin. My rear Scout 44 is thick.......hmmmm :D
