Are you talking about the dust cover on the rear end? When I first raod
tested my jeep, the rear end was making noises similar to a "box of rocks"
being tumbled. My Pinion gear and ring gear were shot. I ordered a new set
and was able to get them installed in a weekend. I had a hurricane looming
and needed to get the rearend reinstalled so I could tow the jeep out, so I
was a little hyper-motivated.

The instructions that came from the website were exact and made my first
rearend rebuild manageable. Unfortunately, i don't remember the Gearset
vendor but a basis web search will find a good one for you.

Perhaps other members have links to Gear dealers and the online
instructions.

But now my rearend is very quite. Like the previous poster, I cant hear the
rearend over the engine and tire noise.
