guards

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Mine are made using 8" pipe caps if I remember correctly, I bought my axles with them already fitted so I couldn't tell you where to get them, to be honest it's rare you need them, I've never dented a diff housing in 7+ years of offroading in my Sj. Well unless you plan on driving into rocks at speed :lol:

Make one...takes maybe 3 hours tops, just get a sheet of steel from a scrappy. £10 maybe...
