Differential cover
So does anyone have any experience with the differential cover from Poly Performance?
Poly Performance
It probably isn't as strong as the ruff stuff cover, but it is also half the price.

I was recommended to that cover back when I got my 8.8, has good reviews all around and you can't beat that price.
lol, if you did enough off roading with a 7.5 that you needed a SOLID diff cover the ring gears would have already blown up from abuse.

Exactly. You don't need "more fluid capacity" for something you use on the street. And if you off road you should upgrade to the 8.8.
>>>^^^^^vvvv
Why do you say this? Extra fluid capacity is just as beneficial to a street machine as it is to any offroad rig!
The SOLID is a nice lookin cover, but would be more useful to me if it was aluminum to disepate the heat.

How many rpm's do you plan on turning to produce enough heat in a 7.5 to jusitfy an aluminum cover?

Well........
Don't have 7.5's, mine are 8.8 L/S w/3.73's and may not turn enough RPM's to justify it in your eyes, but if I'm gonna spend the money, might as well buy what's beneficial IMO..........
Why are you arguing about a 7.5 if you don't have one? Quit while you're behind bro.

So, I could get this rear differential cover for looks and more fluid capacity?
I dont offroad much, and my truck is my dd. Should I get one? (I planned on changing my rear diff. fluid soon anyways.)

Couldn't hurt if you want some bling but it's not like you would ever require the extra fluid capacity.

Dude.......the OP is for an 8.8, not a 7.5
and my comments were directed at the postin that ya wouldn't need extra capacity or coolin for a "street" truck.
