Description
Superior Cooling Performance. The Banks Power differential cover is engineered to significantly enhance differential cooling by extending lubrication life and reducing heat buildup. Designed for on-road towing and heavy-duty applications, it actively cools the differential fluid through patented forced-air technology, promoting optimal gearset longevity and performance.
Construction and Appearance. Crafted from A380 aircraft-grade aluminum using precision die-casting and CNC machining for a precise fit, this cover offers exceptional strength and durability. Finished in satin black with machined surfaces, it combines rugged functionality with a professionally refined look suitable for demanding environments.
Installation. Installation is straightforward, requiring no drilling or modification of existing components. Designed for ease of serviceability, it includes features such as an angled fill port and magnetic drain plug to simplify maintenance tasks.
Application. Specifically designed to fit the 2020 to 2026 Sierra 3500 HD models, this differential cover is compatible with OEM locker style differentials but does not fit Ram trucks equipped solely with airbag suspension systems. Sway bar spacers are required if an OEM sway bar is present.
