Applications:

This PML rear cover fits the Sterling 10.25 or 10.5 inch ring gear differential. It can replace the stock 12 bolt cover. Some possible applications are:

Ford F-250, 1989 to 2016, 2017 and newer models with 12 bolt stock cover, for 14 bolt cover, see PML Dana M275,14 Bolt Cover
Ford F-350 single rear wheel, 1989 to 2016, some 2017 and newer models (if you have a Dually, see PML Dana 80 differential covers)
Ford Excursion, 2000 to 2005

Always check your vehicle to verify differential and space available for a larger cover. Because configurations vary, PML cannot guarantee fitment.

2017 and later F250 trucks with 14 Bolt Rear Differential Cover: In 2017 Ford introduced heavy duty option with a Dana M275 rear differential. The stock cover for the Dana M275 has 14 bolts, not 12 like the Ford 10.25/10.5 cover. See PML Dana M275,14 Bolt Cover.

2017 and F350 later trucks with 14 Bolt Rear Differential Cover: See PML Dana M300,14 Bolt Cover.

Needing a round shape with straight fins: PML makes a rounder Ford 10.25, 10.5 differential cover for those wanting a classic straight fin design and a shape similar to the stock cover.

Front Cover for 4WD Vehicles

PML makes front end covers for these trucks. The corresponding front differential is a Dana 50, 60 and the stock cover has 10 bolts.

PML makes a cover for pre 1999 trucks with the larger ring gear and one for the 1999 and later trucks with steering linkage close to the stock cover.
