Reviews for Teraflex 3990650 HD Differential Cover for Dana 44 Axles & TeraFlex CRD 50 Assemblies
Look great
Nice styling
Awesome product. Built 100x times better than stock. I covered it with some clear coat to give the finish a better protection. Some reviews reported paint peeling. I provided a photo of the before and after.
Based on previous reviews. I checked and double checked for bolt toque lbs. I went with 30 ft lbs per bolt. And no issues with them snapping. Also clear coated both bolts and dif cover. 3 weeks and still lookin great.
Heavy duty twice as strong as the factory.
Nice product very sturdy and heavy.
If you are doing a re-gear (as I was) or any differential service, picking one of these up is a no brainer. I put this onto a 2012 Wrangler and will likely do so on the LJ when I get to the point of doing diff work. They both look great cosmetically and are super beefy, there is no comparison to the factory diff cover... One note is that they do NOT fit the rear bolt pattern on the WJ rear D44 axle (on my 2004 Limited V8), still haven't figured that one out yet
Teraflex should have powder coated this to protect from rusting and make the paint stronger. Nice design with red lettering, but paint isn't strong. I had to spray rust film to protect it from rust.
As with some of the other reviews, the bolts were horrible. I snapped 2 off when trying to torque them to 30 ft/lbs. One is stuck in my housing and I thankfully got the other off. Soon after, I sourced new hardware. Extremely disappointed.
Great Quality, If you live anywhere where these is snow at all it will be destroyed after the first winter. Installed in Fall and by the first month of winter was so rusted that you can't even read TeraFlex anymore.
