Blaster's helmet from Thunderdome or Fort Knox.
It's beefy. What do you think?

resistance is futile. you will use this diff guard.

Leif, it is certainly beefy, but you don't want your protection to create a needless hang-up point. I still like that QT mini-skid plate diff-guard and I'm trying to get some more pics to see if it hangs down too much...

I ordered some QT front and rear for my RRC. Hopefully they'll arrive this week! Installing the front one may require some work since we have LHD (backwards according to them!) vehicles.

Cool, Ali. I have an inquiry into qt for some more info. Please share your experience here when you get them & install them. Thanks.

That guard is not on my truck, but thought it was funny. I like the minimalist approach like the QT or Bearmach. Do they make the QT for the DII? I'll have to check their site.

I don't know who makes it, but Nathan at Discount Rovers is going to sell it. It looks strong, but maybe too bulky.

that looks like a bad angle

shoot a pic straight on from the front I'll bet it does not look so stupid

and if it works well and dosent hang down who cares what it looks like

I'm not sure who makes the rear diff/pinion gaurd that everyone was raving about on EE

but to me it looked like the catch hook on a jet fighter...ready to catch on everthing.

to each his own!

That's hideous. Something like a cross between Mad Max and the Elephant Man. Please, don't buy that crap just to save $20 or something.

was it bertha? i thought it was beulah (sp?). i just watched it again pretty recently too. just love that movie. i love the part when the big black guy comes bustin' in that shanty house and pretends to stab one of the guys.

Garrett,

You are correct, it was Beulah Ballbraker. She was one mean looking lady. Just like in Scary Movie with " Ms. Man."

I just requested some info from QT too. I will post anything that I get back. My concern is whether or not they fit a DII buy their guard has definitely gotten a lot of interest lately.
