rear pumpkin skid plate

Does anyone know if there is a bolt on skid plate for the rear pumpkin?

I have a 97 chevy silverado 14 bolt. I must of hit a rock doing some muddin and leaked all my fluids out. I barely clipped the bottom of the pumpkin and broke the seal.

I know a lot of people probably fab up there own but i don't have any access to that kind of equipment or know how to weld.

Anyone suggestions or links appreciated.

Just trim the cover so it doesn't hang down below the bottom of the diff, it won't catch on anything anymore...
Trim or just get a quality diff cover.
14bsf or FF? if its an FF, look at the non-razorback covers that kert at DIY4x.com has. beefy and good price.

or, like others said, trim the lip of the cover some.
what cover would you guys recommend? I just don't want this to happen again and get stranded. Luckily i was close to home and i noticed a puddle of oil before i went driving.


Its a 14 bolt SF
