Front Differential and Axle Protection for Defender

[urumax82]

I found this on Landrover Tuning :: Protection - Defender. Has anyone ever seen one of these or has one on the car, and what do you think ???????

Not sue about the colour, but it looks terrific.

A little exxxy though !

Like the concept, colour is bright!

Wonder how much this will influence axle due to weight when on faster loose surfaces?! May induce a bit more "tramp"

Hi

Looks good.

If you do a lot of work in heavy clay think you may have trouble removing the clay that will end up trapped between guard and housing - may be hard to remove.

How many people gave damaged the tube rather than the pumpkin anyway? Not convinced this region is a priority for protection.

I would weld a a brace (doubling as a guard) to the tube before I went this way.

Landrover Tuning :: Tailgate Organizer, for Land Rover Defender

I like this idea, someone with an industrial sewing machine, canvas,velcro, and a few brass O rings could make some $$$, i would buy one.

A mate of mine had a similar thing on his defender and you lose clearance.
Don't reckon it's work the spend.
I can think of better things to spend $800 on, like HD axles or even a locker.

I might have a word to my wife.
She has the equipment.
Can't be hard. I reckon that's pretty expensive. I'll charge a wopping $10 less.

She has the equipment.

Your a lucky man

The diff tube is quarter inch thick and takes a fair bit of abuse. It's the steering rods and diff cap that take damage easily.

That guard is lhd specific.
