Rear differential cover
Found the OEM aluminum cover on line for $53.00 so I changed the oil and cover this weekend. Suprised how cheap the cover is

If you wash it with brake fluid and spray some clear it will look new for a long time

A reminder, you will need 12, 5/16"-18 (NC)X1.25" bolts for the install. I used stainless steel socket (Allen) head bolts with stainless washers. I used 1/4" sized flat washers, they fit the 5/16 bolts better, I also blue locktited the bolts

I used stainless too - they're a little longer than standard. Ford wanted $7 EACH for the bolts. I think 15 cost me around $15 in the end. I never put washers on either.
