Cool truck man.Is there an issue with the gear cover fitting on that setup?I'm building a hilux from a dingo kit and i have the same HR trans but i haven't built it yet.I've been thinking about getting the 32p gears but i want to use the cover too but i'm not sure if clears the 32p spur.

[Clk1982]

The cover should fit just fine but i don't run a cover just open gears never ran into a problem or felt i needed a cover
