Description

Asfir 4x4 Front/Rear Differential Steel Skid Plate - Dana 44 | Bronco, Wrangler & Gladiator

Heavy-Duty 4mm Steel Armor. 100% Bolt-On. Protection for the Toughest Trails.

Bulletproof Shielding for Your Dana 44 Axle

The 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.

Real Owner Feedback ★★★★★

"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."

- Jake M., Jeep Wrangler JL Owner

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Does this fit both the front and rear differential?

Yes, this skid plate is designed to fit either the front or rear Dana 44 differential housing. However, they are sold individually. If you want to protect both axles, please purchase two units.

+ Is drilling required for installation?

No drilling, cutting, or welding is required. This is a 100% bolt-on system that installs directly onto existing mounting points on the Dana 44 differential housing.

+ Will this cause my differential to overheat?

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.

+ Does this work with aftermarket differential covers?

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.

+ How much ground clearance will I lose?

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

California Residents

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
