Are there any rear dif guards that have forward protection? Should I be concerned since I'm installing a Rockware pinion guard?

Neal, take a look at QT Services diff guards. They offer pinion protection and wrap around coverage of the rear diff. Here's a link to some pictures.

I like it. I didn't see a price? Any idea?

It says right there - 47 pounds inc VAT. Looks like a nice guard.

They are about $70 US each. They make a similar unit for the front diff. I hear the shipping is expensive since they come from the UK, but this is probably what I will be ordering in the next few months. Hope it helped.

I've got a Rockware pinion guard and a SG rear diff guard and I think it covers all the areas back there. I've been more worried about dropping off an obstacle and hitting the diff cover more than running forward into something, but I recently removed both items and they had taken some hits. Very glad they were on there!
