I have a 1972 109 3-door ex-MoD and want to know what my options are for diff guards (salisbury in rear) and steering guards. Anyone? A 109 is pretty long to wheel, anyone have some insight/ Ron Ward |

Ron, When did you get a 109? QT Serivices have Salisbury diff guards http://www.qtservices.co.uk/ For the front, i think you can use any common diff guard that would fit a disco/RRC etc..... |

Anything will fit in the front. Sumo bars, or Dan Bars or just sleeving the links is the way to go with the steering. I would not worry about a rear diff gaurd but thats me. Ron |

any Dana 60 diff gaurd will fit the salisbury. There is some other guy named Ron out of Minnisota who makes really nice ones. Ron |

Ron, is the Dan Bar the same thing that most Defenders are fitted with? I looked into getting one of those from RDS (a steering protecter for 50 bucks!!) but the Defender unite will not fit a Series rover. Is this true? Is there one designed for the Series rover? If so, is there anywere to get it? I too am looking into protection for my 109 so I am going to follow this thread closely. Thanks y'all!! Max T. |

does the Sals share the same bolt on cover as the Dana 60? You should just buy a HD cover, try searching google or pirate4x4.com for "Dana 60 cover" or something like that.... |

Yeah it does share the same bolt pattern. Most of the guards for this type are a tube type. I think "rons custom" diff guards are the defacto diff guard. JK |

Dan Bars are sleeves made by MJ Lee, that thing RDS sells is something completely different. Ron |
