I have roverbiz's diff guards front and rear, very stout, well made. Lots of different brands and price ranges for diff guards, along with lots of opinions on whose are the best, just go with the ones you like, most of them will more than likely do the job.

rockware.net has a pinion guard:

I was just over on the discount rover site and noticed the QT services guards. These look cool and the rear one looks more functional than any other that I have seen.

Anyone with experience with these?

Brian - I also went for the Roverbiz front and rear guards. They seem very solid and are well constructed, easy to mount and I got great customer service as well.

What!!! Will you don't like my pinion skidder?
As far as diff gaurds go I like full coverage.. A lot of very serious guys weld steel pipe caps on the diffs.. This requires cutting off the original steel in this location but i'm trying to work out a removable one.. Hey 5/16" full round cover..? Indestructable!!!! And they look like they belong there...

Hey Keith, checked out your gallery. Was curious about your pinion slider comment... Do you do this for fun or do you operate a business. Or what?
