Electric Locker Motor Guard ?

Okay, I fiqured since the e-locked axle that I picked up is waiting to be installed I'd get a few things for it. Has any had experience with the below product and would you recommend it?

Granted I don't do alot of rock crawling type wheeling but I want to keep my stuff protected.

I believe one is just about as good as another. Look at sky's guard it is a good bit less expensive and I know many people use it without problems.

www.sky-manufacturing.com (the guard is under the tacoma section)

Angus was yours All Pro, or Trail Gear?

I like the inchworm gaurd.

Sky manufacturing also makes one, but I dont care for it, as I think it leaves the side a bit open. But it does cover the front a little more exstensively than the inchwork gaurd.

I don't think trail-gear is still making it.

I believe that All Pro is retooling to redo thiers since it does have clearance issues with the diff/ gas tank on the Tacoma's

I looked at both the allpro and sky products and truth be told I don't care for them. For someone reason the inchworm just seems better even though it cost more.
