Product Description

The Carli Suspension CS-DFDG-14 Front Differential Guard is engineered to provide serious protection for the front differential on 4WD Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks. The factory differential cover is susceptible to damage from rocks, ledges, and other trail obstacles, which can deform the housing or compromise the sealing surface. Constructed from heavy-duty 1/4-inch cold-rolled steel, this guard shields the differential and ring gear from direct impacts encountered during demanding off-road use.

Designed as a direct bolt-on upgrade, the guard installs using the supplied Grade 8 hardware without permanent modifications on most applications. By helping protect the differential housing and silicone seal from impact damage, it reduces the risk of lubricant loss and expensive drivetrain repairs. Power Wagon models may require minor clearance modifications due to differences in the factory front axle housing.
