I'm looking to upgrade the diff covers with something beefier yet esthetic. I looked at Metalcloack, but they clarified on the product specs that their front cover will not fit the 392 at stock height (no lift).
Has anyone upgraded their diff covers (front and back) for 392 XR stock, and can you share photos and product links?
Thank you!

Same boat. Wouldn’t mind something with a drain plug.

I'm using Next Venture differential covers and differential skids on my 392 XR. I put them on before any lift and didn't have any problems. I now have a Metal Cloak 2.5" Game Changer lift (which only gave me 1 1/2" of lift on my 392 XR)

I don't see why a lift would be needed on a 392 XR anyway. I have a lift and I'm running 37s, but I'm still running the stock front bump stop length. And the bump stop is what determines how close the differential cover comes to anything else at full suspension compression. The ride height obtained by a different set of springs wouldn't matter.

Update. I called a few manufacturers and eventually decided to go with ARB's front and rear covers.

I have TeraFlex covers. No issues other than you have to use RTV and not the stock gaskets.

I've got ARB covers on mine. I've actually got a spare rear ARB cover in red if you're interested?? (still new in box...long story thanks to Quadratec)
