Default Rear end cover

I've been reading and the chrome cover that comes with the s60 seems to leak on a lot of people. I've heard of people switching over to an lpw cover and everyone loves it.

"The covers feature two premium-grade load bolts that thread through the cover and put pressure on each case main cap. This additional support dramatically reduces ring gear deflection, stabilizes backlash, and diminishes the chance of cap deflection or breakage."

Would it be worth it to get this cover or should I try my luck with the chrome cover that comes with it? The chrome cover it comes with costs 30 and the lpw cover is optioned at 150 but since they wont be using the chrome cover i assume they can knock the lpw cover down to 120.

how much do the studs putting a load on the main caps actually help the s60? I know I wont break an s60 with stock power levels but does it really help much? I really want to make sure this rear is quiet when I get it and stays quiet

Are you sure that cover fits a S60 and not a regular dana 60?? Not sure if they use the same case??
