Rear diff skid?

Does anyone know of any other companies that make a rear diff skid besides Boztec and Allpro? The boztec one is pretty pricey

Im running the small trail gear one. It was $15 or something. It has done its job.

If I had to do it over I would like that Blue torch fab one. It looks nice, plus is a full cover

I personally dont want my diffs hanging any lower than they already do. Thats the main issue i see the the BAMF skid.

Either way it wouldnt fit the 4runner. I believe you would have some major interference between that skid and the rear corner of the gas tank skid it.
