Diff cover
I know there are treads on this but want your opinions and suggestions. About to order diff covers tomorrow with lube lockers. Debating between ARB, Riddler, and PSC. What do u suggest and why? Thanks for your input in advance.

I'm waiting for my riddlers from Northridge to arrive. I decided to go with those from some great feedback on this site. Plus custom color.
Plus I didn't think the ARB red was gonna look too good with my mango.

Riddlers, Poison Spyder, ARB all make great covers that will give you the protection you want. Although, I'm really fond of aluminum covers ie G2 or even Camp's new covers. You'd be amazed how much lighter they are than the previously mentioned steel covers while maintaining the same strength. Also, aluminum covers will keep the diff a little cooler than their steel counterparts. Just my .02

Put on Riddlers with lubelockers a few months ago and have slammed them well on the trails with no leakage or damage. Just a little touch up paint! Easy install also, but go buy some grade 8 bolts that are about a 1/4" longer and you won't break them trying to torque them to 30lbs.

I went with Solid diff covers due to price. They all protect your diff very well, why pay more? I have had Solid's covers on my past 2 Jeeps and they have never had a problem.

Well I have noticed that the Psc and the riddler covers are the same except for the logo but the Psc already come with grade 8 bolts. Did u get them powdercoated or painted? I want them red anyhow.
