Well bags were empty this morning so I guess I have a leak. Time to get the squirt bottle filled with soap and water.

Bummer.

No biggy there's always little things to work out. Wouldn't be surprised if the $6 gauge is leaking or possibly something pulled apart, rubbed or got burnt on the exhaust. I didn't check the pressure until I got to work. I thought I did a good job routing and securing the lines but until its put through some driving you never know.

Oh yeah, I know. I just finished running 3/8” aluminum hard lines on my bagged Silverado and I was trying for no leaks at 200 psi. I still have one tiny one but it’s so small that I can’t find it with soapy water.

Well didn't get to tracking down the air leak but I did some more research on diff covers that will fit.

Basically I need a cover that's 3" or less thick. At 3" that gives me about 1/2" space which really I'd like more than that even. Don't think I'll find an "upgraded" cover that fits.

PML makes the lowest profile cover

Huh never heard of them. I've found it's kinda hard to find parts for the 9.5. Not that you can't find stuff but the big stores like summit don't carry all the obscure brands. Will have to check that out asap!

Do you have one?

Yes sir that's with the QA1 curved bar. 9.5 is a fat daddy lol.

Oh big dog this looks sweet but idk if it will clear. Might have to grind some fine down.

I stand corrected I think this one will work.
