By the thickness of the metal? I seriously doubt that 8mm will be a noticable difference to ground clearance. Certainly, that is all that mine would lower by.

clbarclay:
8mm can make enough of a differance when your seeing who can drive a line off road that others can't follow with friends :dance: Its similar to having tyres which are 5/8" taller.

Genreally though there are other more pressing issues to deal with before worrying about 8mm of diff clearence.

sleepy straven:
Thanks for that. I do not do anything daft with the landy. I use it off road every few months or less normally at a local site at Drumclog. The clog is a big peat bog but the odd rock does peer out and it is normal to see the trench of your diff pan through the mud. It is looking like the QT ones are the answer.

Range Rover Blues:
You can now get a QT style diff guard with the clamp on front face too, best of both styles if a little heavy.

Get yourself to Donnington next Sunday and have a look.
