I have not needed an aftermarket cover. The only reason I see for it is more oil.

 

[kewlkarim]

well, it does hold more oil, and the more oil you have the smother & cooler your rear diff will be.

Its helps to keep the rear diff cool and increases oil capacity.

Not really much to explain with an aftermarket differential cover. The main reasons folks purchase them are:
-Looks
-Higher capacity-means more fluid and theoretically lower operating temps.
-Easier maintenance. The Mag-Hytec I have has a reusable gasket and dipstick for checking fluid level. Other brands do not and some lack the brake line bracket like the OEM unit
