diff guards...to fit or not to fit...

island_creature · Jun 23, 2010

I was wondering if fitting diff guards to my 90 was worth while? A friend is selling his for £20 the pair to me...

At £20 I can't believe you're even asking.....especially with

''re-spray, chequer plating sides and wings, raider bars, roof-rack, spotlights, 16"alloys, tow bar''

They rot out yo diff pans, depending on type

.

i lagged mine with waxoyl then fitted them over the pans with lots of copper slip.siliconed round the join and drilled out the drain hole at the bottom bigger...

£20 diff guards vs £££'s for smashed pan/damaged diff

No Brainer ...

Yeh make sure theres pleanty of drainage and that they are kept clear and clean....otherwise your diff protector will turn into a diff destroyer.

Sounds an ok price, just stick the pressure washer behind them regularly and go crazy with grease, waxoyl etc so your diffpans don't rot out.

i went a differant route

i cleaned the diff pan/housing up degreased it then put best part of a tube of silicone mastic on the gaurd before fitting (no water or shyte getting in there

)

I did'nt see much point until getting back from an off-road weekend once and realizing I had tw@tted the front diff and I had'nt even felt it

Needless to say now fitted

no diff gaurds fitted to mine. I don't intend to either. I like my diffs rot free.
