Thread: D2 front recovery and protection.

Them or uv4x4

I've got the 4x4de steering guard and front recovery points, they're solid and well made.... I'm happy with them.

Im after some front recovery points, steering protector and front + rear diff protectors.

Have you guys brought stuff from 4x4 Design and Engineering - Home before and what did you think? Eg price and quality?

And where else you could recommend to buy from?

I've got 2 of the 4x4DE front underslung recovery points - not cheap, but happy with them and I'm not convinced about the strength of the jate versions on the bull bar - photo is somewhere here on another thread.
Also have front diff protector, front sump protector (runs from radiator back to steering arms - which are also HD). Still cogitating on rear diff and TC/Auto trans protection as mine is set up as a tourer and in theory anyway I should not get that far into trouble.

Thanks guys I think I will go the 4x4 d and e. and grab it all at once. Where did you get your sump and trans protector from?

More than happy with the gear I have purchased from them.

QUOTE - Where did you get your sump and trans protector from?

They were fitted by a local company in Perth (so not much use to you). Can't give you product names for them at the moment as they are not mentioned on the invoice and the car is away having a rubbed through ATF hose replaced - I suspect the ATF problem started life/happened arising from poor re-fixing during my engine transplant which was done well after having my excellent auto trans upgrade work done for improved towing. I will leave it to the experts to argue over warranty/liability.

Hi Gavin,
I am also in Perth, could you please pass on some info on the sump gaurd.. I have been trying a few different places and can't seem to find any??

Cheers!
