HELP ME!!! i need a rear diff cover

[kblood477]

i need a rear diff cover for my 95 i=Impreza outback . its not the same shape or size as any newer ones. it has the heat exchange fins on it , im assuming its only on 95 and older models never seen one like it before . but i need one asap! mine broke around the drain plug.

Yeah the heat exchange fins were just an older auto trans thing. Not sure why they would use them on only the rear diffs with auto trans, but that's all I saw them on. Any R160 diff cover will bolt right on.

no they wont. i have an r160 out of a 98 outback sport and its different. i checked .its not even close to right.

and its not an auto either

The bolt pattern isn't the same??? that should be all that matters.

 

[kblood477]

no bolt pattern is very different the 95 diff in my car is about a half in wider on either side then the normal r160 diff. its taller also.

That is very odd

I think a picture would help at this point...
