Keg, do you have the brand name, and part number of your cover handy...? And what did you pay for it..?

I may try this cover, has the look I'm after, and they seem to know about clearance issues.

A word of caution to the installer I vehicle owner:
The Mag-Hytec cover is designed to fit the factory Dodge axles as supplied as original equipment. However, in some applications, or because of the use of certain factory options and/or after market equipment, there may be clearance problems between your Mag-
Hytec cover and other vehicle systems (specifically some rear sway bars). It may be necessary to install spacers or shims to lower the
sway bar. It is the responsibility of the vehicle owner/cover installer to ensure that no other vehicle component comes"in contact with
the Mag-Hytec cover. Contact with any vehicle component, or the making of any modification to the Mag-Hytec cover,
automatically voids the warranty. Mag-Hytec assumes no liability, expressed or implied, for damage or injury to persons or property.

Ok, got my cover, and finally got it installed.
When I changed the fluid, I though it was very dirty for 4200 miles. The new fluid looks like honey, that's how clear it is. What do you guys think? Didn't see any metal, no foul odor, just dirty looking fluid.
Also the directions said I would need about 5 quarts to refill this cover. I was going to use the old fluid, well cause it had 4200 miles on it. Didn't think it would look that bad. So I used 2 new quarts, and one old quart, and that put me in between the lines. Not sure where they got the 5 qts at.
I removed the pan hard bar, but left the sway bar hooked up. Had no problem with clearance. The pan hard bar is close, maybe a 1/16", but the sway bar has plenty of clearance.
Dealer fluid $33.50/qt Additive for anti-spin $10.95.
I may have gain a quart in capacity, so all in all I'm happy with it.
