Protect your Corvettes rear differential with this 197-1979 Chevrolet Corvette Heav-Duty Rear Differential Cover- Cover Only. Designed as a direct replacement for the factory differential cover, this heav-duty reproduction features reinforced spring mounting pads that provide significantly greater strength than the original cover, helping prevent cracking around the rear spring mounting bolts—a common failure point on factory covers. Constructed from premium heav-gauge cast material, this upgraded cover is built to withstand the demands of hig-performance driving while maintaining proper differential alignment and sealing. This listing includes the cover only and is ideal for owners who already have a serviceable gasket, drain plug, and mounting hardware.
Manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications, this restoratio-quality differential cover is precision machined for an accurate fit and dependable sealing performance. It accepts the factory rear spring mounting hardware and is available in the correct application for both early and late C2/C3 Corvettes. For 197-1979 models, verify the rear spring mounting bolt size before ordering, as Chevrolet introduced a larger 7/1-inch spring plate bolt during production. Whether youre replacing a cracked original cover, upgrading for added durability, or completing a hig-performance drivetrain restoration, this heav-duty cover delivers the factor-style fit with greatly improved strength.
