Not completely sold on the design... thinking.. if you come down decently hard on a rock just right on the axle protection, can it damage the diff bolts, maybe, possibly? (or, if you hit the same obstacle un-armored just as hard, would your axle be screwed anyways? I guess so...). Just not sure. It looks neat.. Just not sure if its better or worse, all around, than something just protecting the diff cover. Thoughts, community?
According to DV8's site, they do not mention whether this will fit on Gladiators or not. Personally I can't see why it wouldn't, but I can't confirm that it'll fit without any issues. -Zach
Shop this DV8 Dana 44 Rear Differential Skid Plate! : terrain.jp/3Fdw3G5
Outstanding!
Merideth should do more of the videos. She’s easier to listen to than that Ryan guy.
I didn’t use the jack! #beastmode

Wondering about all the duff that will collect ? Maybe one could drill some drain holes for runoff ?
Do you have any videos demoing it?
Can this be used on the gladiator as well?

Did you ever try installing on a gladiator?
