well the stock bumpers are 20 quid that is 300 :shock:
No way I would spend 300 notes on summat that gets clouted as often as a front bumper. You after a winch then? they are a loda money and insurance hassle for summat that won't get a lot of use.
Xtremeteam:
a fair few have staited that you wouldnt have an axle guard but would rather fit a dan bar or a sumo bar,fair doo's,fit an axle guard & it protects the diff & the trackrod
(still got some for sale £90 delivered)
DaveDavies:
Get the slider type diff guards, QT do them and there's similar on eblag
Don't bother with the wrap arounds, you'll feel every bump you catch rather than sliding over..
SteveG:
This is the order I would do it in..
Good recovery points front and back
Diff Guards
Side sill bars
Protection bars for steering and track rod
Fuel Tank Guard
Diff Guards I second Dave's view and go for the wrap around type. QT are best in my view, but you are talking 100 pounds just for them. Paidia 4x4 do a pair of similar ones for 45 pounds
Side sill bars Go for galvanised, britpart, paddocks etc do a pair for 110 pounds
Protection bars for steering and track rod I prefer Sumo, but lots of people like Dan bars too, a pair will set you back about 90 pounds
Fuel Tank Guard Southdown seem to have best here, but there are cheaper versions
Save on postage and some money by visiting billing and get all or some at show prices (hopefully :roll: )

Just had a look at Redlinemikes fathers axle guard..... they are like a giant ski :D ..... no need for diff or track rod protection.... as its impossible for anything to get anywhere close to them with an axle guard fitted. "Liftman" has one fitted.... go to "new members" and view his post.
Yes....after seeing one close up & how much they cover.... ive ordered one :D :D
