Literally the only way you would smash you diff here is a cypress knee in a creek bed

I've seen the clear diff covers on ol mustangs and mopars.
Ill take my solid cover

What kinda paint did you use on the green xj?

Lol that "polycarbonate" is the same thing they make sunglasses out of and expensive safety glasses. I'll bet if you tighten those diff cover bolts too tight it'll crack. Or if you hit a cat with it goin down the road.

And it'll be too scratched to see through after a couple of rides.

They tell you to polish it periodically to avoid that. Way more trouble than I would go through for a diff cover.

Id rather buy a solid cover.

xj_maniac_newb

I'd rather just weld random nuts and bolts and scraps of metal on mine. Would look uber cool.

I went with Riddler. No lip on the edge, recessed bolts, and it's thick. I see a lot of people go with Solid. Is it just the price?

straightsixjeep

I just listed out a popular name for covers. Either way I want an HD cover. Riddler sounds like a better deal.

That was part of it for me, but they're pretty damn beefy.

I know one of my favorite afternoon past-times is crawling around on my fat belly under vehicles in parking lots checkin' out the diff's for glass covers. Hoo-baby!

You ever crawl through a big puddle of oil (under a Jeep, duh) and go sliding? It'd be like tobogganing in the summer!

Jeeeez, is it cold out or what? I got stuck under the XJ I saw at the mall. It had one of those clear dif covers on it. I drove by it and was stuck in awe! I was not sure if it was the cover or my reflection from the high gloss the owner had obvioulsy worked so hard on. I think I will go take a shower now.

so i'm having a misfire issue that comes and goes.

if i disconnect the battery and/or reset the code the misfire goes away and the jeep seems to run normal. but after about a quarter tank of gas the misfire code will return and it starts to run a little worse and vibrates more too. i think the code is for a 6th cylinder misfire but i can't remember for sure.

there is also a possibility that i'm losing a bit of coolant but i have yet to confirm that. i don't seem to have the milky oil that would indicate a blown head gasket or cracked block/head though.

96 sport with the HO motor, 227,000 miles, 5 speed.

any help to set me in the right direction would be awesome.

PS i have seafoamed the engine once and done injector cleaner through the tank twice now.
