Northridge4x4 has an extensive collection top name brands such as Dynatrac, Teraflex, ARB, Currie Enterprises, Dana, Lube Locker, Revolution Gear & Axle, Artec and more!

Virtually any Jeeper can benefit from a heavy-duty Diff Cover. The added strength provides superior protection for your differential and its components, including gears, lockers, and bearings. The stock differential covers on your Jeep are notorious for being peeled open like a soup can on trail obstacles such as rocks and tree roots, leading to gear oil leaks. Operating a Jeep or any 4x4 without gear oil will cause the differential's internals to overheat and fail. Heavy-duty differential covers prevent this by being made from much thicker steel, making them resistant to damage. Protect your investment and ensure your Jeep makes it home from the trail without the need for a tow truck by equipping it with heavy-duty differential covers!

Lockers significantly enhance traction capability for your Jeep, but there are several types to choose from. Electronic lockers, which come standard on Rubicon models, can also be added to other Jeeps. These allow your axle to operate as an open differential when turned off for better on-road performance, but can be engaged at any time for maximum off-road traction. Air lockers function similarly, offering open differential operation when off. They are activated by an air hose connected to an onboard compressor. Aussie lockers, or automatic lockers, require no manual activation, making them a hassle-free option without the need for air lines or electrical switches. However, they do not offer the ability to manually switch them on and off. Limited slip differentials, while not true lockers, still provide increased traction off-road by limiting wheel slip. They work by diverting torque from the slipping tire to the one with more traction in low-traction conditions.

Oversized tires have a major effect on how your Jeep performs both on and off the road. The increased weight from these large tires can cause sluggish acceleration and make it more challenging to climb steep grades on the highway, especially when towing. Re-gearing with a lower ratio set of Ring and Pinion gears lets you enjoy the benefits and look of your Jeep's large tires while preserving responsive driving performance on all terrains. Additionally, re-gearing can enhance fuel efficiency, as the engine doesn’t have to work as hard to turn the larger tires.

Upgrading the Differential Housing is one of the most effective ways to boost your Jeep's durability and capability. Our selection of axle housings provides substantial improvements over stock axles, including thicker axle tubes to prevent bending, stronger suspension brackets, larger axle C's, enhanced ground clearance, and heavy-duty diff covers. Many of our axle housings also offer improved suspension geometry, which allows for increased caster angles and corrected pinion angles—perfect for lifted Jeeps to achieve better steering response. Whether you're transferring your existing axle internals to a new housing or equipping a new housing with heavy-duty axle shafts and gears, we have everything you need to strengthen your Jeep for any off-road challenge.

Our range of Locker Parts and Accessories includes everything necessary to wire your electronic lockers. Wiring harnesses deliver power from your Jeep's battery to the locker and typically come with an on-off switch. For air lockers, which require hoses and a fully sealed system, we offer replacement air hoses and sealing kits to ensure your air locker operates without leaks. Whether you're installing an electronic or air locker or need to repair a component, we provide a comprehensive selection to ensure high-quality installation and maintenance.

Your front and rear differentials are critical components for transferring power to your tires. Keeping them well-maintained with Differential Replacement Parts ensures reliability both on and off the trail. Whether you need to fix a leak with a differential cover gasket, ensure smooth operation with high-quality bearings, or find other parts to keep your differential functioning at its best!

Differential Install and Overhaul kits are crucial for either installing a new set of gears with premium components or refreshing your existing gear set with all-new parts. These kits typically include everything you need, such as new bearings, seals, shims, differential cover gaskets, marking compound, crush sleeves, and more. Our install kits come with high-quality components to ensure that your new ring and pinion set operates smoothly and reliably. Our overhaul kits are ideal for those looking to upgrade their differential with fresh bearings, seals, and gaskets for optimal performance.

Ensure your axle's performance with our range of Stock-Style Replacement Differential Carriers, available at Northridge4x4. If a limited slip or locker isn't what you need, we offer a variety of open differentials and differential cases designed to keep your stock axle performing at its best. Our selection of stock-style replacement ring gear carriers is crafted to ensure the durability and functionality required for smooth and efficient axle operation, supporting both your off-road excursions and daily driving needs.
