The Banks Ram-Air Differential Cover (19269) is a revolutionary product in the cover industry. It fits 2001 - 2019 GMC/Chevrolet with AAM 11.5 or 11.8' 14 Bolt Rear Axle and 2001 - 2018 Dodge 2500/3500 with the same axle. The design team at Banks tested all flat-back covers on the market. Their new Ram Air Differential Cover cools 5 times better than flat-backs, and 118% better overall. It also increases fuel efficiency and extends oil life. Other flat-back covers often have poor fluid dynamics, reducing fuel economy and efficiency. This cover features a die-cast A-380 aircraft aluminum housing, chrome-plated hardware and a magnetic plug, a stainless sight-glass with a contrast screen. It's designed to break away if snagged. The Banks Power design allows fluid to flow through gears with little resistance, keeping oil cool and protecting the gearset. Most aftermarket covers have ineffective fins for cooling, but this one uses a patented Ram-Air system to direct cool air through radiator fins, eliminating the dead zone. It also has user-friendly features like magnetic fill and drain plugs for easy oil changes. Banks Power Part Numbers include 19249, 19259, 19269.

Using this Banks Ram-Air Differential Cover is easy. First, make sure your vehicle is one of the compatible models: 2001 - 2019 GMC/Chevrolet with AAM 11.5 or 11.8' 14 Bolt Rear Axle and 2001 - 2018 Dodge 2500/3500 with the same axle. Install the cover following the standard installation process for differential covers. When it comes to oil changes, the magnetic fill and drain plugs make things simple. Just use a 3/8' square drive tool, no hex wrench needed. The 20 - degree angle of the fill plug also makes filling easier. As for maintenance, regularly check the sight - glass to monitor the fluid level. Make sure the cover isn't damaged, especially the break - away scoops. If you ever snag the cover, it's designed to break away to prevent more serious damage. Replace the cover if it gets severely damaged. This will help keep your differential working well and your vehicle running smoothly.
