Hi all.

Thought that might grab your attention! lol

There's a thread on here somewhere about a protector(helmet type thingie that comes in 2 colours) that fits over the sump.

From memory, it sells for about $180.

Can somebody post the link on here. pretty please?

Thanks.

Take care out there.

Aye lad that you did, thinkin it was more than I needed to know :clownredpuff:

Do you need underbody protection? Have you been damaging your vehicle?

Those plates certainly work, but they are heavy and wieght is an enemy.

Mine has had a few hits, but it is mainly the front control arms where they attach to the diff, the front hangers of the rear springs and the rear diff pumpkin. That rear diff is a fat assed bugger.
And the tow bar of course.

The plates wont help those items and lower the ground clearance as well.

One thing I have fitted is steel rings welded to protect the sump plugs as the back one got so mangled we had to weld some steel to it to get it out.

Keep an eye on your interesting thread.

It was like a helmet that fits over the sump. A couple of members from here have them fitted. Is Bigrig one of them?

That's right Roofy. Leave me alone you lot. I've toughened up more than a princess

By the way, have you seen the size of the potholes? I think I'm justified with a HH.
