considering asking abou the riddler cover yielded me like 2 results, ill just ask the cherokee owners.

shoot me a picture, tell me what lift you have and talk about track bar clearence.

I have a week or so to decide which diff cover I want. Originalyy I wanted riddler, because its smooth, but I heard its got poor track bar clearence.

post up, let me hear what you run, what you reccomend ect. I'll be doing alot of woods running. So tree stumps ect happen. Along with rocks

I have the riddler cover with 3.5" lift. no clearance issues noticed.




I recommend it. my other choice was going to be a crane cover.

Rough Country guard over my stock cover. Looks cool, performs well. The only thing I don't like is, you can't add any fluid without taking it off which means 5 lower cover bolts need to come out. Also sucks when you do a fluid change. You have to install the cover with the stock bolts, let the sealant dry a few hours or overnight and reinstall he guard the next day. I'm looking in to the "Solid" diff covers next. They have them for a good price.
Oh, no clearance issues btw

YW. Here is a link to that cover I mentioned. You can't beat that price. http://solidaxle.com/ProductCart/pc/...1&idcategory=0

Solid Differential Cover & LubeLocker Gasket:

Since I am stock height (no lift), it rubs when going over a semi-decent bump in the road. I am sure if I was even lifted 2", I wouldn't have this problem. Nothing that a little grinding won't take care of though. Can't beat it for the price of $64.

No lift yet, no clearance issues. I like the cleaner look of the riddlers.

This is the same problem I have with my rough country diff guard.They sold us the wrong diff guard I think their is a difference between the factory diff covers verus high or low pinion dana 30 axles.

There's no difference between the hp/lp, except for the back of the housing, and the gearset.

I have Solid covers front and rear. My tie rod does contact my front cover when I'm flexing and turning. The tie rod is built from 1.5 DOM tubing.

This is an awesome paint job

I run Riddler in the rear D44 and Ruff Stuff Specialties on the front D30: http://www.ruffstuffspecialties.com/catalog/D30COV.html

I would highly recommend either. The Ruff Stuff is just pure beef.

Then why do some of these diff guards block the fill plug hole and some of them don't?
