The GMF have the best protection, but are the most expensive. Need something like this made in the US:

GMF Trailing Arm Sensor Guard

@Franco appreciate the feedback...of those found on-line seems to be the most 'robust'.
Sounds like to issues with fitment based on your comments.

By chance, did you opt for the 'Add-on Sensor Wire Protector Plates' ?

Foutz really needs to upload pictures with the "Add-on Sensor Wire Protector Plates" they offer and you mentioned. They may have a complete solution when those are added.

I emailed them asking for pics. I'll report back if I get a response.

I emailed them and they said shipping to the US was no problem. I was quoted $82.25 shipping to my location for a total of AUD $381.25. Ends up being $240 USD.

Foutz replied to my email with a link to their "Rear Suspension Travel Sensor Wire Protector (add-on)." It has a bunch of great pictures.

Will this act like a rear trail arm skid as well? Rear lower arm mounts are one of the lowest points of the truck (and Broncos), and i hit them way more than the rear diff. Based on my last offroading trip in UT & CO, I'm just as concerned about protecting the rear lower arm mounts as the position sensors.

Looking at pictures makes me believe the GMF would provide some skid protection. If you plan to drag the lower arms a lot I would invest in the Foutz Lower Arm Frame Guard:

I would love to... but that ain't cheap. lol Hopefully, some other companies make more affordable ones soon before my next big trip.

Same experience here re: offroad...more worried about rear, non-diff clearance than anything else...bitten me a few times already when crawling.

Looks like S&B Filters is coming out with a low cost solution with good coverage:
S&B Sensor Cover

I as well, but the Foutz Motorsports simply don’t address the primary issue. I’ve been using the RA’s since I’ve had the truck.??

Hey Guys, we make the guard and also the wire protection you can add on. You can use the wire protector only with the stock mount if you want or the full guard and wire protector both.

we make a proper rear arm guard too with HDPE lower slide skids. Did you see these?
