Groundforce. I have used a sheet of lexan to cover the rear half of the underbody. I used some button head self tapper screws to attach it to the side rails and ran it over the rear skid plate. It goes over the first pair of screws in the skid plate but is secured by the second pair. I used a paint stripper / heat gun to soften the lexan to follow the contours and on the countersunk screw head area before tightening the screws. The lexan stops all the muck from being scooped up and rammed into the rear diff universal.
