They are hefty. I will have to look, I think they are the same size as stock as far as lube capacity. I heard its bad to overfill if you have a high capacity cover. Which is kinda confusing....if you cant put more then the recommended amount why make hi cap covers?

If you over fill, it will come out the tube seals. what happens (probably) is that the hi cap diffs offer more horizontal volume to be filled, not vertical. like take a cylinder that is 3 inchs high and 2 inches wide... they prolly open it up to 3 inchs high and 2.75 inches wide... make sense?

Hey Justin, make sure you point the shims the correct direction on your leaf packs. LOL Remember how long we were looking at mine making sure we did it correctly? Haha.

I agree with Jake on this about the use of rack mounted lights. The highest I would mount them is on the pillars. ALso it says that it doesnt come with a relay which you need. So add on about $70 for a relay rated for the power they are going to draw. For that price you can find PIAAs on sale like I did which are A: brighter B: all wiring is included with a relay.
