    I've about scraped the metal ring around the drain plug off my housing. I'm interested to see what you come up with.

    So have I the drain needs to be protected that's why the design will not have a a hole where the drain plug is like the others on the market. Im building this for off road use so the skid will have to be romoved when changing the diff oil but I figured it would be better to remove 6 bolts once or twice a year then rewelding a drain plug because you ripped it out on the trail

    It will be available in the group buy mid October.

    :thumbsup:
