Thread: PML or Mag-Hytek diff covers

Yup, 35/12.5R17 on the stock rim, sucked right up where the stock spare goes, no issues at all. You can see it a bit better in this shot

Humm I may have to get my self a Toyo MT that fits my stock spare rim. I was going to take it off and ditch it all together.

Thank you MikeyT.

You can see it a bit better in this shot I wonder what the difference is?? Note: I do not have issues unless the suspension compresses 3-4", like with a load and driving on a dirt road where the suspension cycles more than normal.

Now that fire season is about to wrap up here in california im looking to spend some money on my truck. Im looking for a diff cover replacement so i can change the diff my self quick and easy. I refuse to pay the dealer $215 and have to kill a day waiting. I had mag-hytek on my last truck and liked them alot but I dont tow alot just a small utility trailer with 2 quads so mabe 2000lb pounds. I dont know if i really need all the extra fluid...

I opeted for the MagHyteks, their quality is excellent. I have NO issues with them, plenty of clearance. I drive on hot surfaces all the time, the extra fluid to me IS a BIG plus, the more the better. If I were to get a new truck, the MagHyteks would be the first thing I would install. CD

I have not had opportunity to look at the PML, but the MHs I put on are exceptional quality, and would buy them again in a second.

No complaints with the PML rear cover. Holds 5 qts. MikeyB

Get one of each! I have a PML on the front and MH on the rear. I like them both. I guess I have to say I like the quality of the MH just a little more....but MH has had some issues with fitment on the front (rubbing)...and the design looks a little funky on the front for some reason. So I went with PML there. You can't look at both ends at the same time anyway. ..

Very happy with the PML's. Have them front and rear. Excellent fit. Mine are the plain cast ones, no powder coat. Have had them on for about four years, no leaks, no complaints. I went with the plain ones because I heard they cool better.
