I was bored at work and found this. I don't think it would last more than about 10min on a trail. But I figured somebody might get a laugh out of it. Or somebody could get it for their DD and put neon inside of their diff for that extra bling in their ride. :laugh:

They're actually VERY durable... I always thought they were kinda cool.

If you’re going to spend a small fortune on a diff cover get one of these:

I got one about a year ago and will never go back to running the stock cover; it stiffens up the Diff a lot and is practically impervious to anything your likely to do to it.

I'm running one of these as well on my front 44. Freakin' awesome. Although you can get similar ones for a lot less. They're probably made overseas though.

Hey, at least you'd know if you have diff fluid.

You can tell with a steel diff cover too - if the gears don't weld themselves to the housing on the drive home, you probably have fluid!

Another option, maybe not as good an option but an option none the less... :smoker:
