    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

    I wonder if they had group order, they'd fabricate some for the P38A? I'm still keen to build up my spare P38A for off-road but I'd have to do it on the sly.

    Hi

    I started a thread on rr.net and someone said that a D2 guard will fit with modified brackets.

    Sadly I don't think there is anywhere I can go to test this theory

    My brother has a d2 with a skid plate. I'll do some measuring next time I see him - could be a couple of months though. ..

    I suppose as the mcc bars a few have got are d2 bars, the skid plate is going to be close enough to modify.

    Even making new chassis brackets wouldn't be that hard.

    Hi

    I reckon I could cut out the brackets with a jigsaw and a bit of patience, if it comes down to that

    Hi

    Some pics of the APT steering guard on a D2 here

    http://www.aulro.com/afvb/discovery-...ing-guard.html

    Including this one which shows the recovery points

    Hi

    My queries on FB have brought this to my attention courtesy of an English P38 owner.

    Not sure if it protects the track rod as well

    I wonder if would still fit with the raised suspension and not touch on max articulation?

    Hi,

    Further digging led me to this page

    Exterior Protection

    So it seems the terrafirma stuff is either rare or just starting to be produced
