A differential case assembly includes a differential case and an integral end cap and ring gear assembly. The differential case has an open end and a side wall with an exterior surface. The integral end cap and ring gear assembly is disposed over the open end of the differential case and adjacent the exterior surface. A first interior portion of the integral end cap and ring gear assembly abuts the exterior surface of the differential case to define a weld joint interface. The integral end cap and ring gear assembly is configured to permit a welding operation at the weld joint interface.
