| In the welders defense it was only like the third time he ever welded something.......
He's gotten much better since buying his own machine | |

| My bolt on front cover has held up very well. Has come close to falling off but a swift kick puts it back in place easy enough | |

| Weld on are the way to go. I've destroyed a couple good bolt on diff covers. Of course, I'm not known for being too gentle with my truck...  | |
