Good quality but it rusted quickly

On the trail I blew out a U-Joint and had to get a replacement. Naturally, the repair shop I was lucky enough to find in Colorado re-filled the differential up to the drain plug. Then I get back off-road a week later into my wheeling vacation, only to see "4WD Needs Service" and a leaking front axle seal. Too much fluid blew out the seal. I kept it in 2WD and was happy to make it out of the mountains. Then had to re-fill the fluid several times to make it home. Now I'm waiting on a shop to fix the blown gasket.Coincidentally, the way I blew out the u-joint on Holy Cross trail is when I got pinned in between rocks (of the water crossing) I tried backing out of the situation. By some fluke, my Metal Cloak armor that was on my rear shock got caught on the rock, bending back the other way. 3 years of driving my Rubicon with stock armor... and then I go and buy this and it was just a cascade of terrible events.

Great product and fairly easy to install. Except that you have to drill 2 holes in your drive shaft’s housing. No biggy, but if you’re not up for drilling through metal, it’s not for you. Otherwise, love this product. Installed on my 2019 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 3.6L in less than 2 hours.

A word of caution, Metalcloak RAISED the fill plug on this unit from stock. My first time filling my front diff I put in over 2 quarts before I realized that I overfilled it. According to Metalcloak you need to fill the diff with the stock amount of fluid, then make a dipstick to remember that oil level.
