Nice video.
Lube locker gasket for sure. B&W Diff Cover or Banks.
The old PPE design cost me diff rebuild. The new design still looks flat with some Improvements. Covers need that concave for the ring and pinion.

Thanks for making the video. I agree with you about PPE products. Again, agree that the hardware should be stainless. I think Banks products are over priced. I’ve never been impressed with any of their diesel intake or exhaust systems. I followed their rear differential series back when it came out, and was disappointed when I saw the product price point. Please give some feedback after you drive with the PPE differential cover.

Thanks for the awesome comment! I will definitely give feedback I will also give feed back on the leaf springs in the same video

[@brandonhaywood3391]

Same cover I was looking at.

[@DIYDiesel]

I’m very happy with the quality of it

[@italianhillbilly1978]

Thank you for the videos.... my question.... everything on the internet says 2.5 quarts of gear oil and your previous video you put in 5 3/4 quarts .... help!?!?!?

[@DIYDiesel]

The front is 2.5 👍 the rear stock cover is like 4.5
