Id go with the Ruffstuffspecialties cover. I have one for my front 44. It is crazy beefy. 1/2" flange with 3/8" cover.

not as road friendly though are they? i have seen x14.5's on a 15x8" wheel perform flawlessly at 3psi..
i need a happy medium between road and trail.. unless i can get a good deal, im working on some 15x8's right now.. maybe just trail tires, we'll see how the money looks
anyways, i got my diff guard in, all but one bolt fits if no one saw my other thread
