You're not comprehending. Those vehicles have already been on the road for awhile and those vehicles have presumably been tested with the product. That is unless their differential covers are brand new to every vehicle and then in which case yes they'd need to be factored in to any testing.

But even with that you have to factor in the market. For the off-road vehicles that have been on the road for awhile chances are the owners have either purchased a different differential cover or don't need one. In that case, the market is really in the new vehicles where the owners are considering what covers to purchase.

Are you just trying to be a jerk with the "you obviously don't know anything about business" and the "have you installed anything on your JK" cracks? I'm asking to determine your intent. If you are trying to be a jerk you know where you can go.

I put my Solid differential covers on and they're fine. No grinding. Obviously, when I lift my Jeep that may change. I'm hoping not.

Or buy somewhere else. But, thanks for the advice.
