I'm making mods to improve performance to tow a 4400 lb travel trailer. I've already opened up the exhaust system behind the cat converter with a dual inlet muffler and larger tail pipe and have a cold air intake ordered. I plan to put synthetic fluid in my manual trans pan and the differential already has it. But, I also want finned differential cover and finned or deeper trans pan to improve fluid cooling while under the load of towing the trailer. Can anyone help with sources for these?
I found this diff cover, but can't verify that it fits my '06 with 6-speed manual trans. The bold pattern looks exactly like the one on my truck.

Any other suggestions for improving towing ability would be appreciated too.
Thanks...

If you have an M226 rear diff., you can use the finned
cover from a Titan. You will need the bolts also(longer).
There is no "finned" pan on your manual trans. I just
noticed your sig., the CC uses the C200 rear diff if my
memory serves me correctly.

Also, if you have an e-locker it is an M226
If you have a 6 speed with or without e-locker it is an
M226
Non locked and autos are C200
(All NISMO and Pro-4x are M226)
c200k - 8 bolt
m226 - 12 bolt
