Ford 8.8" 10-Bolt Fiber Differential Cover Gasket

• Fiber gasket seals the differential cover, prevents fluid leaks

• Direct replacement for leaking, damaged, or missing cover gaskets

• Fits Ford 8.8" axles with a 10-bolt cover pattern only

• Not for Ford 7.5", 9", or 9.75" housings — confirm axle ID first

This fiber differential cover gasket is sized and punched for Ford 8.8" rear axle housings with a 10-bolt cover pattern. It's a direct replacement for a leaking, damaged, or missing cover gasket, providing a reliable fiber seal between the differential cover and axle housing sealing rail during cover reinstallation, fluid changes, or cover upgrades.

Fiber construction supports a consistent, leak-resistant seal and is the factory-style material for this application. The Ford 8.8" axle is commonly found across a range of Ford rear-wheel-drive cars and trucks — confirm your specific axle identification before ordering, since this gasket is not compatible with Ford 7.5", 9", or 9.75" housings.

This gasket is sold individually and includes no cover, hardware, or drain plug. Confirm your axle model, cover bolt pattern, and sealing surface condition before installation.
