The Ford 9-inch differential hangs low and its pinion is exposed to every rock on the trail. Artec's Pinion Guard shields it with 3/8" mild steel, keeping the pinion, yoke, and driveshaft out of harm's way on a dropped, low-clearance rear end. It is meant to take direct hits and keep the drivetrain in one piece.
Key Features
- CNC cut from 3/8" thick mild steel for heavy rock protection
- Shields the exposed pinion, yoke, and driveshaft from impacts
- Includes 3/8" grade 8 mounting hardware
- Compatible with Ford 9" truss options that do not require a bridge
- Made in the USA
Fitment & Compatibility
Designed for the Ford 9-inch differential. It works alongside Artec's Ford 9" truss options that do not require a differential bridge. Because it fits the axle rather than a specific vehicle, it suits any build running a Ford 9". Installation is weld-on and should be done by a competent professional welder.
