BODY ARMOUR

Heavy duty bumpers front and rear will fend off impacts, reducing damage to the panels and lights and helping maintain its roadworthiness. Bumperettes on a Defender or series rear cross member will protect rear lights from parking impacts. Even a roof rack can help reduce damage to the vehicle’s shell if you slide into a tree or get hit by a lorry.

There’s a real plethora of armour available to keep your Land Rover going through thick and thicker for year after years. Diffs are the lowest item and usually the first to hit something. Rocks and other solid objects can damage the axle casing causing the diff to stop suddenly or lose its lubrication, both of which are bad.
Rear Discovery 1 axles are particularly susceptible to damage and often rust through. Luckily, you can buy replacement diff pans which prevent the problem re occurring.
