Finally doing the rear axle
Here is a pic, but I do NOT recommend their cover. I had to grind the inside of the cover to clearance the adjuster locks, AFTER I swapped out the hex head bolts for lower profile allen head bolts.
Then I had to over drill the top hole to get the cover to line up (all the other holes were good).
THEN the cap studs would not line up to sit on the cap. They were too far apart, and sat partially on the adjuster locks. Because I purchased this cover a year ago I was SOL (only a 90 day return policy). LPW did not even respond to my inquires when I sought help, thinking maybe I was doing something wrong (although it's kinda hard to mess up a cover install).
In the end, I removed the adjuster feet, and screwed in allen set screws to seal the holes, and just ran the cast cover to reinforce the housing.
Maybe my axle was some weird deal, but it was original, so I don't understand why nothing fit right. Unless LPW can explain the problems, I would recommend just finding another cast cover instead.
