Optional Machining for Temperature Sending Unit

This cover has an undrilled boss for an aftermarket temperature sensor sending unit. There is a machining charge for PML to drill and tap the hole.

Drain and Fill/Level Check

This cover has a fill/level check hole on the side at the same level as the stock cover.

A drain hole on the bottom makes for easier maintenance.

A plug for the fill/level check hole and a magnetic drain plug are included.

Skid Plates

Skid plates and guards can change the space available for a larger cover. Always check for clearance for a larger differential cover before ordering.

Liberty Owners: If you have a Liberty with a gas tank skid plate, this PML cover may or may not fit. Mike in Lousiana with a 2006 Liberty CRD installed an OEM fuel tank skid plate and emailed us to confirm that this PML cover clears the fuel tank skid plate for his installation. Another Liberty owner let us know he loosened and shifted the skid plate away from the differential cover to get more space. Configurations vary so check your vehicle.
