In this video I show you how to swap out the stock differential covers on the Autoedit 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon JKU for some sweet G2 Brute Aluminum units.
This upgrade is rated EASY and all skill levels should be comfortable with the Do It Yourself on this one. There is a potential to make a mess with the gear oil and I demonstrate that in the video... don't be like me...lol
There are several reasons this is a must upgrade for your Jeep. First off, these heat treated aluminum covers from G2 offer much more strength than the stock stamped steel ones.
Second, they are designed to hold much more gear oil inside the differential. That and the cooling fins in the aluminum offer much better heat dissipation than stock.
Plus, these covers have a drain plug, sight hole and fill hole built in. Making it much easier to fill and do general maintenance than before.
Here is a link to the parts I installed in this video:

The hand pump thing at the end is priceless! I'm that guy who never would have thought of that and just kept spilling gear oil all over my driveway.

@paulj.8652 2 года назад

Love being able to reference your videos, no matter how old, when I perform upgrades to my Jeep! Thought I'd share that a good habit when changing diff covers is to use a pick to check the bottoms of the bolt holes in the diff for dried rtv. I've had instances where whoever last worked on the diff applied way too much rtv and forced it into the holes. This has resulted in the new bolts compressing the dry rtv and shearing off as a torque wrench will not indicate appropriately in such a case. I sure learned the hard way! Bolt extraction can be a pain!

@philv930 4 года назад

Sweet! This video was a great walk through! I made my life a little easier and went with Lube Locker Gaskets instead of the Sealant with my Poison Spyder Bomb Proof Covers. Hardest part was filling the oil to the right level.

Nice Jason. Very nice. That's one of the best upgrades I did to my jk too. I used lubelocker gaskets though. I dislike rtv sealant. Such a mess. I can take those things off as many times as I want and they never leak when I reapply them. Great video

@organicmechanic8170 4 года назад

@autoedits great video! I just grabbed a pair of the new style G2 Hammer diff covers for my Gladiator. It was either the new G2 Hammer or the ARB Diff cover and I went with the G2 because I've seen a lot of the ARB covers with rusty logos and bolts after a short while, even though I like the design of the cover itself. G2 has a good price point considering I'm not paying for features I don't need like a sight window or dipstick and they powder coat the whole cover inside and out and provide stainless hardware. I'll let ya know after I install them how I like them.

Love your video. Word of advice....I put large pieces of cardboard under my jeep for all oil changes and diff fluid jobs. I was wondering for the life of me why you just didn't simply move the pan under where you were pouring. I get it the first time you spilled, but then you did it two more times without putting carboard down and moving the catch container underneath. Sorry but that seemed to just be a no brainer to me. (🙂). Keep up the good work on your videos as I always find them helpful.

@bustedback 6 лет назад

I was forced into servicing my rear diff on my Rubicon because the rear locker got stuck and wouldn't release. After doing a brake cleaner douche and fiddling with the locker, I was able to get it to release. I was amazed at how much pasty muck was inside the locker actuator that was causing it to stick. So if your Rubicon axle lock gets stuck, just douche it out and change the oil after releasing the locker.

@AutoEdits 6 лет назад

Yep!

@tomb9953 6 лет назад

Sorry guys, it depends on the application. I know the shiny beveled edge looks better facing out, but that leaves the sharp edge facing in and that can gall the surface when tightening. Also, it depends on the type of washer. Such as spring or conical washers. These have to be used with cup side in to get the benefit of design. I’m getting to long winded. I deal with the washer issue in my job all the time and have installers go back and flip washers, and at times we are talking well over a hundred. They just love me for that. Lol

Very nice. ONE THING, That cover will produce more friction and heat due to the flat face, can also cause aeration and lack of pinion lubing a nice curve for the ring provides.

@Michael_00001 6 лет назад

Question: On the 4WheelParts website for this particular part it says "**Not for use on Jeep JK front axles". Did you use a different part for your front axle? I really like these but concerned about why this would be stated on their site. Is it simply because it won't fit the stock steering parts?

Very well done video. Thanks for saying that a novice like me can do this. How difficult to break open the cover bolts and drain/fill plugs? Thumbs up!

Hey, sort of unrelated question, but you said you have 4.88 gears in your diff, My setup is very similar to yours, 2016 jkur manual trans, lifted 4.5" with 37" tires and I still have the stock 4.10s in the diff, I recently got a small travel trailer and noticed it's really time for me to get my gears changed. I've done some browsing around on the internet and am leaning towards 5.13 ratio but would love to hear any recommendations you may have for what ratio/brand gears you think would be best for me. Also, how are you liking the shifter upgrade? Still loving it?

@ivanperez4031 3 года назад

I wonder, does the dealer actually remove the diff cover and clean the gears when you take it in for a fluid change ?? They charge $159.00 per axle for the service and it seems a bit steep for a drain and refill.

@tinachang2657 5 лет назад

Hi Jason, Thanks for the video. I just installed these covers on a ‘17 JKU. I had no clearance issues with the larger cover and stock components in the front.

@blackdiamondrob 4 года назад

love the look of those but wondering how ANY aftermarket diff cover as strong and bomb proof as it may be, can keep from being torn off any better than the factory diff cover. Seems the best protection would be some kind of skid underneath the diff cover?

@AutoEdits 4 года назад

The stamped steel stock covers are prone to peel and are much less durable than these or even the metalcloak steel covers I have now. I agree a skid is the best protection against dragging it over a rock for sure.
