I find the best thing for all of this is yourself, if you know what your doing there should be no problem.

lol. I suppose the thing to note is "not all steering guards are created equally"
Dont look like too much protection to me but each to their own.
I haven't got any better pics than these, but this is the one I had on mine.
As the Diso has a large overhang, what a steering guard can do is offer a slide, so a steep ascent/obstacle, roll upto it and use the guard to slide up it. It's also hand for deflecting tree stumps and if you are crossing hard baked rutted ground.
Cheap they are, but personally the £30+ shipping I think would be better spent on something else.

Na a good set of AT's are all you need, most guys I seen on the dirt with the MT's just dig the dirt up throwing it all over the place.
Case in point at the suffolk show on that course, I spent all weekend on Road tyres going around giving chairty rides did not get stuck once, there was loads of these look at my Big MT tyres guys giving it the big un and just digging the course up and getting stuck.... seen it many times on the lanes as well,
I would suggest a good set of recovery points front and rear, some mates incase you get stuck, tow rope. CB as well, great to keep in touch with the rest of the crew.
Get experiance, watch others, listern and learn , then you can make up your own mind to what you need ,
so your saying road tyres are better off road than mud terrains
, i defentley wont be swaping my mts for ats tim

I see what you are saying about tyres. And some valid points, that said I think it depends on terrain and driving style.
If it's slippery out, then you might have to drive the hell out of the rig on road rubber, whereas MT's could plod along.
Certainly some of the mud round here doesn't favour road tyres. Even in the dry, which I proved 3 times with my Jeep 2 weekends back :doh:
