Thread: Compressor Guards

I have the GOE, and have never had an issue with sticks etc getting jammed. When you think about it, you would have to drive through a couple of dead trees to get anything of size up that high.

I have one of Gordon's compressor guards on my D3. It has big gouges out of it from rocks and other stuff but has done a great job protecting the compressor.

At the last D3/4/RRS trip in October I took the D4 off road for the first time and got hung up on a rock and guess what?

Yep I broke the compressor mounting bracket. If and when we decide to use the D4 off road again the first thing I will purchase is another compressor guard and some rock sliders.

Hows your fuel tank bash plate looking Terry?
My sliders and compressor plate have been worth every cent.
This includes the front recovery point replacement bash plate, I hit this multiple times even at max height & LLAMS.
The one plate I do not have a mark on yet is the alloy gearbox plate.
And I'm loosing capacity on my long range tank too.

Theres also this one.

No damage ever happening to that compressor short of destroying the vehicle!

The one thing I don't have on the D3 is a long range tank Rich and because I use it for serious off road usuage I'm glad I don't. To me its bad enough flattening the rear exhaust pipes where they go under the diff let alone wrecking a long range tank.

If and when I fit one then that will be because the D3 has been turned into a tourer rather than a bush basher. ...

I was actually meaning the Standard tank Terry, Yes it and the long range one have dents!
