Designed to be tough as nails, the Borne Off-Road Differential Skid Plate is constructed from 5/32-inch plate steel and is ready to take whatever abuse you can to throw at it. CNC-machined billet u-clamp mounts ensure a strong mounting point to the axle and does not require any modification to your vehicle to install. The extended pinion guard protects your pinion and driveshaft mating flanges and helps to avoid debris getting wrapped around this flange, which can cause pinion seal damage. To ensure a long-lasting and durable finish, they are first electroplated via electro-galvanization and then powdercoated black. Designed to be direct-fit and including all hardware, install should take less than an hour with basic hand tools.
