I used to have loads of money till i bought the disco 2  :lol:

Unfortunately that seems to be the case and the prices are much higher.

I did see a steering guard on Ebay for £55 + £10 p&p, item number 170434153747

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/landrover-discovery-2-steering-gaurd_W0QQitemZ170434153747QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item27aeaacd13

 It looks fairly good, what does everyone think?

There was another one for £63.25 + £7.95 p&p iitem number 150394360696

Might invest unless someobne tells me they are rubbish.

before deciding between the two if i were you i would contact the supplier of the more expensive guard to find out how thick the thick the front plate is, you want minimum 5mm steel or 8mm aluminium.

Sammy_D:
it says the frist one in brians post is 5mm steel. is that no good?

"made from 5mm thick steel.

the main plate is powder coated silver and the fixing brackets are powder coated black.

surplied with all nuts & bolts.

weight; 12kg." - taken off advert

I would recommend QT diff guards/slider. Have you thought about heavy duty steering bars or do you also need built-in recovery points?

5mm steel will be fine, imo the side plates don't look to be the most substantial .
