Engineered for a direct, hassle-free installation using existing factory mounting points. No drilling, cutting, or welding required for a perfect fit.
Integrated stiffening ribs significantly increase structural strength, ensuring the plate survives heavy hits without deforming or shifting.
Built-in apertures allow for constant airflow to prevent differential heat buildup while ensuring mud and trail debris drain away instantly.
Heavy-Duty 4mm Steel Armor. 100% Bolt-On. Protection for the Toughest Trails.
Bulletproof Shielding for Your Dana 44 AxleThe Asfir 4x4 Differential Skid Plate is the ultimate insurance policy for your Ford Bronco, Jeep Wrangler, or Gladiator. Your differential housing is the lowest point on your vehicle, making it a primary target for jagged rocks, stumps, and trail obstacles that can cause catastrophic gear failure.
Engineered from 5/32" (4 mm) laser-cut steel and proudly made in Israel, this skid plate provides a rugged barrier that allows your axle to slide over obstacles rather than smashing into them. It is designed specifically for Dana 44 axles to ensure a precision fit with zero compromise on ground clearance.
Why ASFIR Protection:The Pain: A single rock strike can crack your diff housing or peel back the cover, leading to oil loss and a seized drivetrain miles from civilization.
The Asfir Solution: Our 100% Bolt-On design wraps the bottom of your differential in reinforced steel, featuring stiffening ribs and drainage ports to keep your gears cool and protected.
Key Features: Engineering That Endures
High-strength 5/32" steel provides superior impact resistance while maintaining a manageable weight for your suspension.
Reinforced with integrated ribs to prevent the plate from deforming under heavy loads or direct high-speed impacts.
A 100% bolt-on assembly that uses existing factory points. No permanent vehicle modifications are required.
Strategically placed apertures prevent heat buildup and allow mud, water, and debris to escape easily.
Optimized for both Front and Rear Dana 44 differentials (sold individually), providing a versatile armor solution.
Designed to hug the differential housing, minimizing ground clearance loss for maximum off-road agility.
Includes high-quality, corrosion-resistant mounting hardware to ensure the plate stays secure in all environments.
Proudly engineered and manufactured in Israel, a global leader in high-performance off-road and defense armor.
Tested in the World's Toughest DesertsWe don't just build skid plates; we build armor. The Asfir Dana 44 guard features a weight-efficient design that doesn't sacrifice strength. It is held together by high-grade fasteners designed to withstand the vibration of washboard roads and the sheer force of rock crawling.
4 lbs Lightweight 4mm Steel Thickness Dana 44 Axle Fitment Bolt-On Install Type
"I've gone through two diff covers on my Wrangler before switching to the Asfir skid plate. The fitment on my Dana 44 was spot on, and it took about 15 minutes to install. I've already dragged it over several ledges in Moab, and while the paint has some scratches, the housing hasn't taken a single dent. It's the best peace of mind you can buy for under $200."

No. The Asfir design features integrated ventilation apertures that allow for constant airflow around the differential housing, preventing heat soak even during long days on the trail.
This skid plate is designed to fit the factory Dana 44 housing. Some oversized or extra-thick aftermarket differential covers may interfere with the fitment. Please check the profile of your cover before ordering.
The Asfir skid plate is extremely low-profile, adding only the thickness of the 4mm steel to the bottom of the differential housing. It is designed to maximize agility while providing total armor.

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.
The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov

The wait time was more than I anticipated even after seeing the notification of long lead times. I have to give them props for giving some compensation for the excessive wait time. Having slightly larger holes would help with fitment. Had a hard time getting the front drivers side away from the pinch weld. Eventually had to use washers to add space away from the truck. Need to update pictures and instalation video for the new sliders they are now making
All packing and shipment were great, everything was there. I had to contract out the install because of arthritis, it took them two hours and looks perfect. Zero wind noise at any speed 0 to 100.
Absolutely love my new rack and roam cases. Appreciate the Sherpa crew as well for their hospitality while the installation was taking place.
Fit and finish is excellent. Looks great on the Bronco. No whistling noise at all, some additional wind noise over 60mph but not much different than it was without the rack. Assembly was not too difficult. Instructions and videos could be a little better.
The quality and dedication of the team at Sherpa is evident from the very first interaction with them, and is further proven in the product itself. This rack is well engineered, easy to assemble, easy to adjust, and holds up incredibly well with no loosening or rattling or shifting (even after over 200 miles of driving on poorly maintained roads). Currently operating with approximately 180 pounds of gear mounted on the bed rack and no issues at all so far. I expected the vibration to work the bolts loose over time, but every time I check they're all still snug. My only regret is that I didn't pull the trigger and get this rack sooner.
First of all, the team at Sherpa is full of passion for adventure and that passion shows in the quality of their products. This roof rack looks incredible and surprised me with it's sturdiness. No loosening of hardware, even after weeks of driving. Currently holding approximately 80 pounds of gear for everyday driving, plus an additional 110 strapped on top during a camping trip (and I even stood on top of the entire loadout). No warping, bending, twisting, or slipping. The fact that this matches the bed rack perfectly in height is the icing on the cake. Easily serves as a tie off for a tarp, rain fly, hammock, or whatever you need. Perfect for modular campsite setup and quick teardown.
I bought the Sherpa Crestone rack for my 2024 4Runner TRD Pro. Incredibly well-made and excellent design. Spend the extra , to get best roof rack in the market. You won’t regret it.
This is our first roof rack that we are going to use to put a RRT (roof top tent) on for back country trips. Well-built product that came with all the nuts, bolts and washers to complete the installation. Took about 1-1/2 to 2 hours install the rack. You will another person to help place the racks on top of the Jeep for final install. Overall, a great, well-built American product
Install was super easy. The quality was great. Customer service was quick to respond to any issues! I’ve already been getting compliments on it and what brand it is. This will be great for camping this year!
This is on my tundra absolutely solid rack looks fantastic extremely modular, which is why I went this route. I can use the whole rack when traveling and over landing then rock the chase rack only when the rest is not in use, I actually use the recovery traction board mounts for my shower room set up, which works amazingly just relocated the board somewhere shown in picture keep innovating TUWAand I’ll keep purchasing.
Good looking cat shields made of stainless steel with cooling holes. Priced well, easy install, no issues. Would buy again.
Great service from their staff. Robert help me through all the process with a request I had, he responded all emails in a timely manner and provided great help.
We received it within 3 days and installed the same day. Great awning and very well made.
the tent is very nice, comfortable and roomy.
Following the instructions was fairly easy. Its better to have second person to set it up. I really like the tent and the support that from ExtrailAuto. Really recommeded! Thanks

Fit and finish first class. I made an error on my initial order, reached out to customer service and they had everything squared away with just a couple of emails. Great communication on shipping and shipping progress. Would definitely use these folks again.
I'm happy with my new racks, it's perfect for that I want.
We are very happy the rack fits the painted roof of our ‘25 Bronco Heritage. Leitner right now might be the only company that makes a rack that fits the painted roof. Typical great Leitner attention to detail

I installed this on my M1102A trailer for organizing my camping gear and mounting my RTT and awning. It was a really easy install and was rock solid containing my gear down rugged dirt roads and washes last week. The sliding rear load bar was great for loading the motorcycles.

I’ve had the full-length rack on my Grenadier for about a year, and it has performed flawlessly. Not only is the design simple and aesthetically pleasing, it is highly practical for carrying any load. I consistently have over 400 lbs mounted on my rack at all times, and even through multiple trips through the washboards of Death Valley at 45 mph, the rack has remained steady and strong, with not one fastener coming loose. I’d buy this rack ten times before I’d consider another brand.
Limited space in bed. Now all my gear sits in the rack above. Made all the difference in what I can fit in this truck!!
needed something low profile but strong. This platform hit it out of the park. Put it on my ARE topper and couldn’t be happier! Assembly instructions could be clearer in showing top versus bottom, but got it together easy enough. Need to show the need for squaring up before mounting. Overall break pleased
