I went to my dealer to buy a diff cover and they said they were on backorder for "i dont know" how long. I also gave him the part number for the new CPS's and he said they only carry the old ones.

WTF is different inside of these new gray ones that make them $170 cheaper? Is it that black plastic costs more?

I have the same problem here, they won't sell me a grey one until all the old ones are gone.
I told them that I don't want the old style. They told me that it was the way it was and I told them that I will wait, thankyouverymuch.

The new ones have a higher tolerance for heat and vibration. This is what my dealer told me.....
