This PML cover for Super Duty Ford trucks and SUVs with the Sterling 10.25 or 10.5 inch ring gear features a traditional straight fin design and round shape.
Benefits:
- Extra capacity
- Heavy duty sand cast aluminum construction for thick walls to add strength
- Machined gasket flange to provide a uniform clamping force for a secure seal
- Drain hole and magnetic drain plug included
- Similar shape to stock cover
- Fins for heat dissipation
We have one of these covers (without fill and level check holes) in a polish finish on SPECIAL.
This PML rear cover fits the Sterling 10.25 or 10.5 inch ring gear differential. It can replace the stock 12 bolt cover. Some possible applications are:
- Ford F-250, 1989 to 2016, 2017 and newer models with 12 bolt stock cover, for 14 bolt cover, see PML Dana M275,14 Bolt Cover
- Ford F-350 single rear wheel, 1989 to 2016, some 2017 and newer models (if you have a Dually, see PML Dana 80 differential covers)
- Ford Excursion, 2000 to 2005
Always check your vehicle to verify differential and space available for a larger cover. Because configurations vary, PML cannot guarantee fitment.
Needing more clearance: PML makes a pattern fin Ford 10.25, 10.5 differential cover for those wanting a custom look or have a clearance concern.
2017 and F250 later trucks with 14 Bolt Rear Differential Cover: In 2017 Ford introduced heavy duty option with a Dana M275 rear differential. The stock cover for the Dana M275 has 14 bolts, not 12 like the Ford 10.25/10.5 cover. See PML Dana M275,14 Bolt Cover.
