I'm considering them but also considering a bit of flat bar 30-40mm wide welded on down the front of the diff casing, that's how I did my LR IIA many years ago.

One thing to be aware of if you weld flat metal down the front of the diff case is how close the Panhard rod getd to the front of the diff. If you have castor correction arms they push the axle forward to maintain the wheelbase and keep the springs upright. The consequence is that the Panhard, on my vehicle anyway, just, and only just, clears the front of the diff. I have a diff guard from ERM in France that welds onto the bottom 1/3rd of the diff and should never come close to the Panhard rod.
