Jess, First, no, the sliders don't suck.... can't beat 'em for the price. Yeah, if price wasn't an issue, I'd say Rovertym, but if you're watching pennies, well.... But the diff guards, I like a lot.... I don't know that there's any out there that I would like better. There may be, but not for the money.... these things are beefy.... IMHO, FWIW.... -L |

Jess, I would go with Dee's diff guards, very nice looking stable looking product. Check under the "for sale" section under "just made a new batch" and you'll find what you need |

Leslie, Rad the thread they do suck. They do not offer any protection. I had a set. They look nice, that's why I ordered them but once you see how they mount and can cause damage I think you would change you mind. Please visit the thread that Jess is refering to. |

I DID read the thread, Neal, and posted there, too. I don't know why you had trouble with yours, but I've seen Jeff A's being used, and they DID protect his truck. Maybe the ones you had were different, I can't speak to yours, but the Bearmach ones that Jeff got from David work. No, they're not as sexy as Rovertym's, but they're half the price. FWIW.... -L |

Sorry I did see afterwards that you were at the other thread. Mine are Bermach- perhaps a different design but most likely the design that they are currently selling since I bought them a few weeks ago. I would stay away from them. Want to put them on your truck and try for your self? :-) |

If the wife'd let me, yes, I'd put 'em on her Disco, and know that I was better off than I would be with the factory plastic in place.... Jeff has had his on for 6 months or so, I think, so, I don't think the design would have changed that much in the meantime.... Hmmmm.......... -L |
