Took a small bump to the rear diff, not overly concerned with it, but want to consider a rear diff skid now. Any recommendations for a skid that works with the FP diff cover? Was considering the MetalCloak one, just not a big fan of the color.

I looked into skid plates recently. The consensus on a differential skid plate is that it’ll just become a new lower place to get hung up on. And that diff cover is so strong already that there’s little chance of it breaking.

I did AEV - fits any cover, and doesn’t block the cover. No real clearance loss, and has added protection for the pinion.

I've bashed the ish out of mine multiple times... The 60 and 10.5 on my GEN5 have SOLID iron covers, but it is a different monster.
