All ways where protection...
« on: January 30, 2005, 09:34:14 »
Right im trying to square up some under body protection for my 109"s/w, the frount is no problem nice steering and diff guard, but the back the bit im more worried about is proveing dificult..

Ive just taken the "plough" off the back better know as a drop plate and fitted a combo hitch higher, but this leave the first thing to hit the ground as the... wiat for it..... Petrol Tank.. hummm thats not good...
I know its double skined but I could really do with a gaurd any recommendations???? im struggling to find an out fit that sells one..

Also is it safe to recover off a jaw hitch?? ive had mixed advises.. :?:
