front cv boot protectors any one?
not realy convinced as to how nessary they realy are? but i have made some inquires in to getting some made using the ones from phill landers website. i know a place that will lazer cut them in mild steel (could ask them to use stainless steel) from the drawings and then take them to the to the welders where they will be folded and welded, have not had a firm price from them yet but it should not be too expencive. and then i or some one can source some 5mm rubber matting to cover them. to place the order they want to make 10 sets min. let me know if any one is intrested. once the they have got back to me with a frim price i will let you all know
thanks neil

If they are well cheap I could be up for two sets. Be warned though I had some westy roof rack brackets made up for me and stan and they wernt as cheap as I would of thought.

Re: front cv boot protectors any one?
Ive got a set of the futbus ones.
Couldnt recommend them more. Very nice quality, good powder coat, heavy duty rubber, perfect fit.
I went for a set as ive had to change outer CV boots too many times through offroading around sticks and stones. Its not a pleasant job....

I'd be interested - stainless seems a better bet, "how much" is the big Q. John

Just found another (better) shot.
Here we are:

Here we are:

If i remember correctly, when talking to Dave about these, it was the rubber and getting it cut into shape that was the more expensive part.and then i or some one can source some 5mm rubber matting to cover them.

The rear ones are rather nice too..
Cables have been re-routed over the top of the arms now though, i wanted to keep them out of harms way.

Re: front cv boot protectors any one?
Baxter's will have the brake disc protection plate on as well since we can't get these seperately anymore
