Since my rear end is leaking and I'm waiting on parts I ended up topping off my rear until hopefully this coming weekend.

My question is. Does anyone have an aftermarket rear cover with a lowered Tahoe? Mine is dropped a bit more than 6".

I ask because the factory cover looked like it was pretty close to the pan-hard bar and I think most aftermarket covers are larger and stands off even more. I could also be over analyzing this.

I just want the ease of draining and filling without having to remove the cover.

Thanks

I know PML makes a "slim" model cover. Don't know if it would clear on a lowered vehicle. I know someone makes a panhard bar that has a curve in it that's made to clear big covers.

I tried the slim pml cover on my stock awd denali.. it did not fit...
but it will fit with an aftermarket panhard bar - the tubular type

Thanks for the info. I'll look them up and send them a message.
Huh, wonder who makes that. Mine is adjustable but, has no bend in it.

Looks tight though haha

the QA! panhard bar for nbs fits and works, not sure if it would allow room for a pml cover but it allows room for a girdle

Is the QA1 adjustable bar?
I'd be happy with a girdle. Would one fit in my situation?
