American Axle & Manufacturing Differential Cover Gasket Rear

The American Axle & Manufacturing (AAM) rear differential cover gasket seals the joint between the axle housing and the differential cover. It is also called an axle housing cover gasket or rear diff cover gasket. It keeps gear lube inside the axle and keeps dirt, water and road debris out.

Key Features:

• Seals the rear differential cover to the axle housing to help prevent gear oil leaks
• Helps protect the ring and pinion, bearings and other internal components from contamination
• Made to OE-style standards by AAM, a leading supplier of driveline and axle components
• Suitable for replacement during differential service, gear oil changes or repair of a leaking cover

Replacing the gasket whenever the differential cover is removed helps restore a proper seal and supports long axle life. Clean the mating surfaces thoroughly before installation, and follow the vehicle manufacturer's torque specifications for the cover bolts.
