Mr Banks, I installed one of your dif covers on my 2014 F350 three years ago because I frequently pull my 16,000# fifth wheel trailer. I’m a believer and I thank you for your research and development and for producing superior products.
@@3DProductions I didn’t notice any changes but I’m confident that I’m getting better differential cooling now pulling my 16,000# trailer. Some things you cannot immediately quantify. If that’s what I was seeking I would have invested in the pedal monster.

Interesting, similar concept to the BMW M series covers from the early 90's and onwards. Great to see a well respected firm bringing this under the radar technology to the performance aftermarket where so many others have missed the mark. Congrats!
You can lead them to water but you can't make him drink Gail I don't know how many times I've seen you discuss this and it amazes me every time I see somebody proud of this cover but it holds more oil and they won't listen to reason because they figure that they spent $490 on this shiny cover it's going to make everything better I'm sure Glad you're still telling the truth And all the wonderful videos you put out over the years stating facts and proving your point but they won't listen
This could be awesome for guys that road race heavy Mustangs like Terminator Cobras and GT500s(and the S550 and up for that matter), they tend to crank the power up some in those cars(since it's so damn easy), throw BIG sticky tires on them, and slaughter big sweepers at high speed tracks - it isn't uncommon to overheat the diff and squirt gear oil out the breather(which is why you should have a diff catch can if you don't run a diff cooler). I think something like this could potentially keep those diffs cool without the need for a complete diff cooler setup with an electric pump and radiator.
yes they cool more than OEM. but given the total lack of issues with the OEM diff solution. it doesn't seem like a problem in need of a solution. More just a vanity piece?
It really depends on how much and how frequently you tow and in what kind of environment. But for the people in their lifted mall crawlers is wont change the performance of the axle but will count as eye candy!
Totally agree, we farm and have been abusing 1ton pickups for decades , I also have personal F-350 pickups that I use hard all the time, never lost a diff in my lifetime other than the 2021 ford axel recall.. Bling is nice but completely unnecessary..(like most aftermarket products 😅)
@@6by6by6Think about the ease of maintenance with this cover. If you work em hard then you should be swapping fluid every 50k. Having a drain plug alone is worth it for me, instead of having to remove the cover and re seal every time. Then the bling is just an extra perk 👍🏼
My vote is for a diff cover for my 2023 GMC Sierra 1500SLT with the 3.0l Duramax i6 LZO. Mr Banks us 1/2 ton trucks tow as well. Please don’t leave us out!
Honestly, they need to be getting these things out for a LOT more axles - the demand is clearly there Maybe some other companies need to take the hint and start innovating with diff covers themselves. We don't want the same old crap that, frankly, until the Banks videos, most of us didn't even know did anything besides make you spend more money on gear oil.
When I was looking for a new pickup in 2017 I read a lot about failed Ford differentials. I am now willing to bet that the people suffering those failures were running a flatback. My best friend and I discussed this on and off over the years and I talked him out of putting one on his first generation Dodge that he still has with over 350,000 miles on it. The discussion always came back to how does the oil get to the front pinion bearing.
Here Here!! And I’m going to need them too once I swap one in to my 65 Caddy. I got the same size tire, and I’m 500 pounds lighter so I should be able to get about the same mpg on the freeway with my land yacht as your 1/2 ton trucks. And since the 472 weighs over 200 lbs more than the Duramax, i’ll be losing weight too.
@@davidblalock9945 Interesting conversion, I like that it's not the usual LS/power BS, but a sensible one that suits YOUR needs. I assume you're using a modern 6+ speed auto', with overdrive and lock-up? Not only will you be getting a MUCH more fuel efficient vehicle, you may even have a better performing one, too!
I have a LM2 myself and if I weren’t moving to a 2500 I’d be very interested in a Banks diff cover too. My best guess is to do some homework and take measurements to see if you can swap the whole axle for one with the same ratio and lug pattern but a 14 bolt rear like a 2500. Probably tougher to do than I think it is. But I’m working on a buddy’s 2000 K3500 and swapping the rear axle for one out of a 2020 Chevy Express 3500 van. Same lug pattern 8x6.5” but disc brakes, higher gearing (3.42) and way less rust. Not a solution for everyone I know but a possibility if it matters that much to you
The market may not be too big for it, but I'd love to see this for a Chrysler 9.25". That's in back for my 1979 Dodge W150. Since I live in the San Bernardino mountains, it'd be nice to have the extra cooling to pull the 18.
So I'm not a truck guy at all, I'm a jdm car guy. But banks tech stuff is so cool and so good that my friend and I put it everywhere we can. An 8.8 cover for my supra and my friends 180sx would be so awesome.
Gale, United Engine Machine has new "Dimple Top Pistons", for the Duramax. They claim better power, lower emissions and quieter running. Your thoughts?
Are y’all planning to make a diff cover for the 1500’s? I’ve got the 14 bolt 9.5” in my Silverado and I’ve been crossing my fingers y’all would make one for it. Hell I’d even pay extra if y’all custom made it for my truck.
I spent hours and hours trying to find a differential cover for my 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 with the 6.2L, which means it has the 9.76” 12-bolt differential. I spent hours trying to find one that accidentally mimicked what you have created. The closest one I found was B&M. I only got it so I can properly service my rear differential. Of Banks made one for my truck, I would have bought it in a heartbeat.
i dont know if there is as much air flow on the top of the diff but would it be worth making an off road diff cover with the wings on the top so they are less likely to get broken off?
I have a Poniac/Olds 9.3 rear. I am going to be using 4.10:1 ring and pinion. I have been toying with the idea of drilling a hole slightly below the axle centerline in the axle housing behind the ring gear and running a tube to an aluminum cooler and then dumping it back into the top of the housing with a tube then is welded at an angle towarde the top of the ring gear. It should help at steady speeds and possibly for the strip although it may not be efficient if the location is out of the air stream. I don't want it to get broken off unknowingly. I got the idea after watching the first series on how differential oil is circulated and Gale Banks told the truth about the awful differential covers. My 9.3 is all steel and with no removable cover, old school, dependable.
There are pump and cooler setups you can buy. But unless you track the car, a large differential like that pushing around a car will probably be a waste of time. You could install a temp gauge in the differential housing to see if it is even getting warm before you take any drastic measures.
@@geoffmooregmHave you done this previously? On what do you base your premise that it is a waste of time? I have temp sensors I will install in the transmission and the differential (different scales). I also run Amsoil Severe Gear Synthetic oil which aids in lowering the temperature. I have not checked into tumble polishing gears but that also reduces friction.
@4speed3pedals I didn't say it was a waste of time. I said you don't want to waste your time, and money for that matter. But you should make sure (by checking temperatures) it won't be a waste of time. Oil, too cold, is almost as bad as oil that is too hot. So, just be sure these mods will be beneficial. Just street driving or drag racing a car will never heat the oil enough to be problematic. Track racing and heavy (relative to axle size) towing will heat the oil. Possibly enough to require a cooler.
@@geoffmooregmI agree with you but with a low ratio such as a 4.88 or more, it may be something to consider after knowing the temps. Pontiac is fortunate with the fill plug being 1/2" pips so the only need is to run the wires. Plumbing I am thinking would be easy for a self pumping cooler. If ineffective it would be easy to plug. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
@4speed3pedals Yes, absolutely. Get that sensor in there and give the car a good hard run and see what happens. I have already added a bung to my oil pan in my old Trooper. I had to eliminate the stock cooler because it was leaking badly, and you can't buy one anymore. Everyone says it's not needed, but I do a lot of off-roading and work the engine hard with very little forward movement. So I am going to install a sensor to see what the oil temps are getting too and under what kind of conditions. Who knows, I may need a cooler, too
Gail, if you had to pick 1 or 2 of your products to FIRST shove into a 2024 Ram 2500, which would you pick? Having troubles picking between the ram air + monster intake or monster intake with the boost tubes? Thank sir!
Just out of curiosity, can somebody explain why you took the Derringer off the market for the 3 L gmc you were developing it for years and said it was going to come out every three months and then it disappeared
Great product, but I'm a bit confused as to how it is patented. I know at least BMW has been doing this under air channeling and fins for cooling on their rear differentials for awhile now.
Why do we just let the Exhaust flow into the air? Is there really no way to capter it or treat via filter on the back of the Vehicle a fan plus treatment device?
We do actually filter exhaust that way. You've just described the catalytic converter, diesel oxidation catalyst, diesel particulate filter, and selective catalytic reduction systems.
Man I wish you guys did more gas stuff. I love this channel and plan on buying products for my diesel in the future. But I really wish you guys did more gasoline engine stuff. Anymore the market for classic cars and most of the overall gas engine market is dominated by Holley. They just keep buying up brands and I feel like as time passes the quality is just falling off. If instantly buy a Banks Efi set up if it were on the market. Something similar to Holleys sniper system. I just installed one on my classic truck and have been fighting with it to keep it running properly. Had a dead sensor straight out the box, then a failed relay, now fighting issues with a stalling I suspect to be injector related. All within the first 100 miles. I just want to buy well made products that last. Is that so much to ask for? L
How about some love for your Aussie mates. We drive Ford Ranger, Ford Everest with 3.2ltr diesel, 2ltr biturbo diesel and the new 3ltr V6 10speed diesel. We need a decent ram air diff cover for our vehicles.
Banks check out and test some pistons that this guy on “Dave’s auto center” channel is talking about. Claiming lower EGTs, soot, and above 10% better efficiency…. Your engineering and testing knowledge would be great!
Not so sure I'm happy with 4 less quarts of diff oil in this cover. Also, if off roading an get a lot of mud and debris shoved in those ram air cooling inlets and fins you will loose the cooling, (with less fluid).
If the Ram-Air scoops collect any mud or debris, simply hose them out. Our patented Ram-Air scoops are designed to increase airflow over the rear differential without sacrificing ground clearance. In fact, our differential cover retains the same low point as factory and competitors. Even if the scoops were to be caught on on something, the Ram-air scoops have built-in break away point prevents damage if scoop is snagged. Regarding fluid capacity, simply adding more fluid does not help cool the gears. Yes, it may take a little longer for the larger amount of fluid to heat up, but just like the ocean, it retains that heat and takes longer to cool down. The Banks cover retains the stock fluid capacity and uses increased surface area to reject heat from the fluid to the outside of the cover and ultimately to the atmosphere. It's 5X more effective than high-capacity covers.

1999-2007 Ford F350/450 with Dana 80 rear axle
Yeah, I was waiting like 3 years now... Very disappointed!
How about some love for your Aussie mates. We drive Ford Ranger, Ford Everest with 3.2ltr diesel, 2ltr biturbo diesel and the new 3ltr V6 10speed diesel. We need a decent ram air diff cover for our vehicles.
Please help all the F150 turbo owners who tow their toy hauler trailers every month. We need your diff cover!!!
1:22 you should have removed those round parts on the vanes because they disturb the flow of oil
They look like casting vents, other than machining them out, i think they might not be able to exclude them.
Who's ready for the golf ball Pistons video
They need to make one to fit Toyota Tundras
Less oil capacity is not a good thing. Oil will wear faster.
If oil is running colder, in cold climates, viscosity should be modified.
I wish I had a truck just so I could install one of these lol
You cannot say 5x better cooling based on numbers that are not kelvin ….. other than that good ad
Dana 70 plisss I need one
So, you'll have an awesome cover, but still have a junk Dorf axle?
Banks check out and test some pistons that this guy on “Dave’s auto center” channel is talking about. Claiming lower EGTs, soot, and above 10% better efficiency…. Your engineering and testing knowledge would be great!
was this video an ad? because 3mil views but 70 comments is weiiiiiird

Beautiful
Not so sure I'm happy with 4 less quarts of diff oil in this cover. Also, if off roading an get a lot of mud and debris shoved in those ram air cooling inlets and fins you will loose the cooling, (with less fluid).
If the Ram-Air scoops collect any mud or debris, simply hose them out. Our patented Ram-Air scoops are designed to increase airflow over the rear differential without sacrificing ground clearance. In fact, our differential cover retains the same low point as factory and competitors. Even if the scoops were to be caught on on something, the Ram-air scoops have built-in break away point prevents damage if scoop is snagged.
Regarding fluid capacity, simply adding more fluid does not help cool the gears. Yes, it may take a little longer for the larger amount of fluid to heat up, but just like the ocean, it retains that heat and takes longer to cool down. The Banks cover retains the stock fluid capacity and uses increased surface area to reject heat from the fluid to the outside of the cover and ultimately to the atmosphere. It's 5X more effective than high-capacity covers.
nice
