Anybody had any experience with diff guards or reinforced covers. I've seen
several, but not sure which I like. I just did cross over steering and have
the cover exposed now. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in
advance.

One of the hottest covers on the rock crawling circuit is the T and J
double-walled cover with recessed bolt holes. I have one on my Dana 44 and
it's bulletproof. See it at
