If you are going to get an upgraded diff cover, IMO get one that has the bearing cap supports and a drain plug like this one..

That's the one I have.

Summit also has their own brand that's a bit cheaper and VERY similar to the TFS. Prob the same part.

I've got a mac cover with what I "believe" are cap supports...they're a threaded set of bolts in the cover...how to I adjust/use them?

Yeah, you want the cover with the bearing cap supports. You just run the bolts in until they contact the diff bearing caps, then lock the jam nuts.

Do they made one , without any word stamp on the cover ? just a plain looking one, but with drain and fill plug on the cover ?

I like the Ford Racing cover.....but at almost $185 its a little spendy.

The trick-flow and summit one have raised lettering.

When i did was buy the summit one and machine off the lettering with a pass on my mill. Wasn't tough to do if you have access to something like that.

Looks like it's no longer made

It was this cover, but with SUMMIT RACING and $30 cheaper.
