Diff Guards / Rock protection

Post by me3@neuralfibre.com »

Ive got a HZJ105 (Live axle 100 series)

If anyone has fabricated (or knows where to buy cheap) diff guards,
could they post the pics online, or email them to me. I want to cover
at least the front diff, and probably both.

Have had a few mates put their crown wheel into a rock and although
it's fixable outback, it's messy and can be catastrophic if not
noticed. (I admit they were rovers...)

Thanx

A strong diff guard is a 8" pipe cap cut in half and grind the inside a little and its a sweet fit for the front but is exspensive about $80 for 1 cap
other ideas is to roll a peice of 8-10mm to the shape of the moahawk and another to go under the drain plug and across
