ITS PINK! Gaurdsman Install.

[CherryK5]

Haha, Got my Gaurdsman in yesterday. I used some Rustoleum Bedliner spray and then some pink rattle can paint to catch the eye. And its the only color other than flat black that i have (black is boring)

I get to try it out friday. Im not too worried about its performance. This thing is beefy.

Heck, when I was a mechanic, I used to paint my tools hot pink! Nobody would steal them then And, I could see them easily if they did!

Looks good. Really stands out... now I wonder how long that paint will last on the bottom side?

Well, a 14BFF is by nature a fairly good trenching tool, so this just adds to its implement utility

(And hey, a little contrasting color is always fun -- but note this comes from a guy who's painted his truck in three shades of blue, the so-called "Urban Smurf Camo" motif )

Check out Heath's post in the garage and there are post all over pirate about them. Sounds like things are going down hill with them.

TMR customs out of Canada is supposed to be releasing one sometime. They showed a pic of it another thread over there on pirate. They have been great to deal with. Virgina 4x4 also used to make them. They had a couple different versions too. Might try them.

Do they have these for other GM axles too? Like the 10 bolt?

pinion gaurds bolt on to axles like 14ff / 9" ford and others were the pinion unit unbolts from the diff housing. so your 10 bolt is a no .
