Truck of the Month August 2008 |
Today, I decided to change my differental cover out for one I powder coated. After taking the old painted cover off, my eyes were in WOW. I was shocked to see all the metal shards that was in the oil and bottom magnetic pad. The ring is starting to show major signs of wear.
Keep in mind these are Motive 4.56's put in two years ago. Looks like I'll be buying some Richmond 4.11's soon. " What is that ringing noise I keep hearing, you would think I'd have a phone or something " |

On the other hand, the new cover looks great.

New cover looks great! Was this the first time you changed out the diff fluid?

This is the second time I've changed out the oil and to change the diff cover. The first time since the gear change was about year ago or so. When we first change the cover out there was the normal amount of metal shards (barely enough to cover the magnetic pad.)

Problem was they weren't ever put in right to begin with from this shop that we first started going to. To top it off the guy dinged up Scott's truck to boot. Scott's rearend was always extremely noisy with that gear install and you can hear the gear wine like crazy over mine and Freds' both from that same shop.
I found a much better shop and so far Fred, Eddie, Ken, and my gears haven't had any issues from the new shop and they're quiet. ____________________________________________________ 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 QC SB 5.7L Hemi Express Limited Edition Performance Mods: RamHammer w/AMSOIL EAAU6080 Air Filter and Pre-Filter, 295/50 General Grabber UHP Tires, AMSOIL'd EVERYTHING!, Jet Stream, IAT mod, Superchip, FlowMaster SUV SI/SO, Thundervolt Full Length Wires, NGK Iridiums, AMSOIL By-Pass Kit, Power Slot Rotors w/EBC Green Pads, TCM wire pulled, Bilstein Shocks, APS Torque Converter 2500 Stall, Transgo Shift Kit, 190 T-Stat, Helwig Rear Anti Swaybar, Moe's Traction Bars w/Shims, Ground Force 2" Drop Shackles, 6.1 Cam w/Manley Springs, 6.1 Rods & Titanium Retainers, Viper Fan w/FK60 controller, Pacesetter Long Tubes & Y Pipe, Flowtech Exhaust Cutout, ATI 5% UD Harmonic Balancer, 4.10 Sierra Gears, M&H Slicks for the track on 17 alloys.
