How good does your MagHytec fit?

I was interested in getting a MagHytec for my Dana 80 under my short bed but I've heard of these covers coming in contact with things like the spare tire. Dont have the sway bar so that isnt an issue. How has your fit?

Re:How good does your MagHytec fit?

My cover just hit the spare by1/2".I fixed it by pulling the tire back and with a lenght of chain,pulled it back and with a lock secured the chain.I now have 2" clearence and a secured spare tire.Just pulling the tire back and cranking it back up did not work.You have to hold it back.

All of mine fits great, but I have the 70 with the sway bar. No problems good product. I like how easy it is to change the fluid which I have done twice in 40,000 miles. OverFueled

They will also wire in red LED lights that turn on with your brake lights. Maybe a little on the ricer side but I think it would look pretty cool at night with the flaming skull.

Re:How good does your MagHytec fit?

I couldn't tell, was there an area to drain the fluid on these? It would be nice if they had some of the same stuff that the mag tech has to make changing, and checking the fluid so easy.

I couldnt tell either. Maybe you take out the eye or something! <br>I did call and check the price. Are you ready?...$489 for big diff's and $389 for smaller diffs. Dana 80 is a big one. Oh yea, they are 6 weeks to get, too. Still COOL though!

Re:How good does your MagHytec fit?

I have a 4x4 short bed, and experience no fit problems. The tall stance of the 4x4 provides adequate clearance. Note that I don't have a rear sway bar which could be a problem with the extended depth of the cover.
