I thought you had the "cap" ones

Yours looks exactly the same as the QT ones but maybe just a bit thinner.

guilty as charged... thanks ben, i'll be in touch.

for the sake of public record, they are very solid units i think i just have an odd resonance issue on my particular vehicle.

On our lap last year I had exactly the same issue as you ninetubes.
Both front and rear gaurds worked bolts (loctited) loose twice, sheered a bolt and eventually broke the top brackets.
I bought them through Daniel at EC and he was really helpful. He contacted APT; apparently they have changed the design and promised to supply me new upgraded brackets.
I have yet to chase that up [emoji51]

There are ones you can buy which have a flange onto the two holes on the diff nose that holds the damper, but AFAIR they are expensive.

PS, you could probably use them by bending a bit of strap to go to the damper holes and welding onto the guard.

I use this type and have put a few tack welds around the circumference, rather than rely on the clamp alone. Saves it being pulled off when reversing over an obstacle also.
