Description
Transfer cases shed metal fines over time, especially on hard-driven cars. This TRE inspection cover replaces the factory access panel and adds a high-strength magnet to help capture ferrous debris before it continues circulating through the oil. The O-ring sealed design also makes inspections and servicing easier because you can remove and reseal the cover cleanly.
Key benefits
- Magnetic debris control helps capture metal fines to support ring and pinion, bearing, and gear life.
- O-ring sealed for easy removal and reseal during inspections.
- Billet construction with multiple finish options.
Fitment
