TL/DR
This is for the FRONT Dana 44 WITHOUT the drain plug, so mid-late 2021 and forward.
Check with your favorite retailer on cost.

Designed to protect your differential casting from direct contact in severe off-road conditions, the Rancho® rockGEAR® front differential glide plate mounts to the front axle casting of your Jeep® Wrangler or Gladiator. Manufactured from 0.25-in. high-strength steel with a durable red powder-coated finish, this differential glide plate delivers a smoother glide over obstacles.
  • COMPATIBILITY -- Designed for Jeep Wrangler or Gladiator Dana 44 (M210) axles that DO NOT have a drainplug on the bottom of the very bottom of the center housing; please inspect your vehicle before purchasing
  • COMPATIBILITY -- Works with OE and most aftermarket differential covers on Jeep Wrangler JL or Gladiator JT, Dana 44
  • BUILT FOR THE TRAIL -- Protects differential casting from rocks and other obstacles while off-roading, rock crawling and trail riding
  • GLIDES OVER OBSTACLES -- Mounts to Dana 44 front axle casting for a much smoother glide over obstacles both forward and backward
  • RESISTS CORROSION -- Durable red powder-coat finish resists rust and corrosion
  • ENGINEERED TO LAST -- Features 0.25-in. high-strength, low-alloy steel construction for long-lasting strength

I have them installed. They install easily and look great. I haven’t tested them yet.

Scrape them up!!! :)

One aspect of my job is to catalog our video, and we have a lot, for use on social and for the sales team.
I was watching some JT footage the other day from Moab and the rear on a JT just got used. Red sand stne flying everywhere LOL

I've only done Moab in my old Tacoma and mountain biking. I live in New Mexico, so we'll probably get up there late fall. We have some great stone stairs and waterfalls here in the Manzano Mountains. I'll test them out soon.

Both the front and rear work when you have all the Rock Hard skids on LCAs?

How much clearance do you lose?

You lose about .25" or so. (Someone maybe able to get a true measurement, it is SMALL)
And should have no issue with those skids. Far enough away from the glide plate.
