8.8 to 7.5???
Quick question, a 8.8 diff. cover will not fit on a 7.5 differential right? Im in a big argument with a friend who thinks they are. Let me know if true.

Thanks

No, they're a slightly different shape. Although the axleshafts will interchange between the 28 spline 8.8 and the 7.5 along with a few other parts.
