The pinion nut and cover gasket will be in the installation kit, but the yoke and kit will not have a pinion washer with them. You will probably have to get the washer from another rear end or get one new.

The girdle cover is a nice addition, but I wouldn't spend the extra to get it unless you intend to shove more than 550hp through the rear or hit it with a trans brake or high rpm clutch drops with a manual trans.

Certainly doesn't hurt anything if you want to have it however.
