RANCHO RS62119 Installation guide

  • Hello! I've reviewed the installation instructions for the Rancho Differential Covers, specifically the RockGEAR RS62119 and RS62120 models. This document provides detailed steps for installing the covers on Jeep Wrangler JL/JLU vehicles with Dana 44 axles, including fluid drainage, sealant application, and torque specifications. I'm ready to help answer any questions you may have about the installation process or the device itself.
  • What type of sealant is recommended?
    What is the torque specification for the cover bolts?
    What type of lubricant should be used to fill the differential?
