    there is a rear differential guard made by rocky road



    its not too expensive, but probably heavy to have shipped over seas

    as for the other plates, a lot of us have the factory trooper plates which are 3 skid plates that go from just behind the passenger tire (front) to the cross member, covers the front of the driveshaft and goes to in front of the drivers side front tire

    Has that been sprayed with the rust block stuff you can get an auto store? I have never seen it applied but I know its like a rubber coating.

    Just wondering, about the factory trooper plates. Which model trooper are they off. A pic would be great, over here we have Bighorns which are the same as a trooper i think?.

    actually they are powdercoated before they leave rocky-road, so no reason to buy any cheap spray on stuff at the store...

    and they weigh 6lbs, so it was actually very cheap to ship.

    $65 to purchase...

    i just bought one myself

    anytime buddy...

    i suggest rocky-road to anyone, they are very quick with putting orders through and they have a whole arsenal of cool offroad stuff...

    a little slow if they are fabbing something up themselves, but they make quality work...

    sigh, i wish we had this sort of store here. i live in the capital of Australia and finding anyone who does outside of the box work is nigh impossible

    The capital is mainly made up of public servants who only require off the rack items. i either get a response like sorry mate can't help you or sure mate but its a 1000% mark up!

    sorry to thread jack, just needed to rant
