Plastic cover = no heat dissipation?
Or maybe one can choose a lubricant which has a higher "viscosity curve." (i.e. can run "hotter.") Joe K

That cool, thanks for the post.
I never thought there was a reason for the shape other than the gears being round. |

Re: So Henry ... why is my banjo round?
My Morris had a square diff cover. It wasn't worm drive either. Go figure.

It's round because if it were any other shape, it would sound like a different instrument.
Gale has his theory but the truth is, there are tons of square back diff covers running around on trucks pulling commercial loads with no sign of any ill effect. |
