I have a brand new MC golden diaper I was planning on running but I can’t die to the bracket, but I do have the Dana diff covers.

Gentlemen: I have the Golden Diaper coming from Metalcloak and am running the DANA Spicer Advantek Nodular Iron rear skid. Am I going to have a problem with the lower edge of the rear fins interfering with the lip on the MC skid? Just called MC and he didn't seem too concerned. Thnx-JBC

I’m not sure, I’m using the rancho diaper, and I had to grind down the weld on the inside so it would clear the fin. But that was only on the front, rear was ok….. sorry I’m a little less than useless on this one …..🫤

Wish I could help you, I have never looked at clearances between the Dana cover and the MC skid.

Thanks guys. I guess I'll find out in a few weeks. Worst case will have me notching the skid's lip for the fins, but hoping to avoid it. The guys at MC said a little gold Rustoleum could cover any minor grinding. Hoping it's as easy a mount as it looks. I'll report back when I have it on.

I recently installed the Dana Adventek covers (F&R) and installed the MC rear diff skid. Went on with no grinding or other modification.
