Aftermarket Differential Cover

[06VHO]

After some serious towing, all of the paint started flaking off of my stock diff cover (heat). I only have about 5,000 miles on my 06 VHO, so I decided to go with an aftermarket aluminum diff cover. The new cover holds more fluid then the stocker and dissipates heat better.

After: (Now I need to paint the rest of the rear end )

These aluminum diff covers come in "As Cast", "Black Powder Coat", and "Polished". Not being a fan of bringing attention to a diff cover, I got the "As Cast" and painted it black.

 

Here are the 9.5", 14-Bolt covers.

 

 

 

 

 

Here are the 8.625", 10-Bolt covers. (without temp sensor boss)

Yes, it comes with a magnetic drain plug.

 

I got it from a guy local to me (in SoCal).

 

The one I got (14-bolt, as cast) is $175.

I don't know the prices on the others,

I can check if anyone is interested.
