  Cover, Cover Rear Axle Housing

• Description:

  This is a genuine Ford rear axle differential cover, the current service replacement that supersedes L1MZ-4033-A in the same family. The cover supplies the stamped steel housing closure that bolts to the rear axle carrier and contains the differential lubricant while protecting the ring and pinion gear set from road debris. Fitment covers 20-25 Aviator, 20-25 Explorer 2.3L 4WD with limited slip, 20-25 Explorer 2.3L RWD, 20-25 Explorer 3.0L, 20-25 Explorer 3.3L Hybrid, and 20-25 Police Interceptor Utility builds across the U625 platform's rear axle variants. Technicians reach for this cover when impact damage from a curb strike or off-road encounter compromises the original cover's seal face or pan body, when a corrosion-induced pinhole leak develops at a low point on the cover, or during a differential rebuild that requires a fresh sealing surface. The replacement ships with the correct vent provision for the platform's breather hose and the bolt-hole pattern matching the carrier flange. Always replace the cover gasket or apply a fresh bead of the Ford-specified RTV sealant per the service procedure, torque the cover bolts in the correct cross pattern to the specification listed for the platform, and refill the differential with the lubricant grade and amount called out by Ford engineering after the cover cures. Pair the cover replacement with a new drain plug if equipped, fresh axle vent hose, and seal inspection at the halfshaft output bores.
