Thread: brains trust: best diff guards puma 90 MY11 ?

QT, for the rear diff, get the specific one for the Puma with the slider from the tail shaft.
The earlier model can puncture the plastic fuel tank easily.

Built very solidly, buy from the UK, Australian resellers are a rip off for these items.

Another diff guard to look at is from APT, haven't used his diff guards, so cannot comment on them, however I have a number of his (Ben @ APT) other products and they are of very high quality.

Edit, just make sure that you get a rear one for a rover diff, and specify Puma 90.... Different rear diff to the 110 & 130.

I've got the apt diff sliders front and rear.
They do what they promise, and install is easy.

Depending on how hard core you plan to go, the rear slider is in fact the same as the front slider(on the 90), so there is a leading edge that may get hung up in some situations.
Realistically, they are a protection device, look for something solid and you'll be set. I've got scratches on mine which I didn't even feel at the time, so they are paying for themselves

Be careful of Front runner (Front diff) diff guards like the one in the picture I have posted below,
They have a tendency under suspension compression and articulation to hit on the steering box sector shaft and damage the steering box.

APT for me. They are well made, good price and you are supporting small companies.

I offer a huge thumbs up for APT gear. Ben offers exceptional customer service and an excellent product.

QT rear slider guard for a Puma 90.

Does anyone have the APT front diff guard $85? Or is the front diff slider $165 the way to go?
