Steering guard woes
Guardian.:
STEERING GUARDS VARY A LOT BETWEEN MANUFACTURERS, THIS MUST BE A SINGLE 1 PIECE GUARD? THEY ARE A BIT MORE OF A PAIN, BUT 2" TO NARROW IS PATHETIC, IT IS FINE TO BE SLIGHTLY NARROWER TO ALLOW THE FIT OF AN AFTERMARKET BUMPER AND IF YOU DONT HAVE ONE IT WILL PULL UP, BUT SHOULD ONLY BE ABOUT 12-15MM NARROWER AT THE MOST IN MY OPINION.
WONT ASK WHOS IT IS, BUT, YOU SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A NICE 3PCE!

It was an Ebay jobbie, this is the item in question:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180168091514
I've just opened up a dispute for the item so we'll see what Ebay can do, i'll try and measure the dimentions tonight, what was odd that it it has 2 holes either side for bolting on, so thats one for the rear steering thingy, one for the bumper mount and a 3rd not required right by the bumper hole :?
stageonesimmo:
That spare hole makes it sound like a Defender item to me - I've got a WOLF guard fitted to my Disco and it has a spare hole due to the disco not having the extra bit at the front of the chassis where the farm-jack post goes.....
Even then though it should be the same width.............
Guardian.:
defender one would be same width, or there abouts, its not 2" narrower.
at a guess id say thve chopped it up perhaps for an ill fitting home made bumper or something.
