Part #: Dana 44
These are some massive covers for the Dana 44's. The also increase the size of the sump on the differentials so should allow them to run a little cooler. I did notice that the stock covers have fill holes located at different heights while the crane covers are right in the center. Don't know if this is going to have any adverse effect on differential operations, but I'll hit up my friend ever so often to see if anything happens. These covers will not allow you to run the Tri-County Gear rear track bar brace, or reinstall the locker wiring clips, so you will need to find a different location for that.

Common Sense and Safety should always be observed when working on your vehicle or doing modifications. Jackstands, wheel blocks, disconnecting the battery are a few of the basic safety precautions that should be used and may not be mentioned in the write ups on this site. You are responsible for your own installation, these write ups are a helpful guideline and should not be taken as an official installation instruction. My write up may be different from the kits currently out there, so alwasy double check the manufacturers installation instructions when installing anything. I try to keep the site up to date with changes that have occured as I discover them, but may not have the latest unless someone lets me know. If you feel that an install is above your capabilities after reading my write ups, I recommend getting together with a club and getting some help. Only a few times have I needed to employe some actual help from a shop to get something done. Usually welding or A/C work. While I have spent many years working on mechanical systems, I am not an expert, nor do I pretend to be one. I hope these write ups have been useful to you.
