stone deflector
There's probably a more technical name for it, though...

stone shield
There seems to be quite a number of sites that use stone shield when talking about brakes
www.ford-trucks.com/archives/80-96-list/V2000.I103.html

The stone shield fits under the arms of the clip so make sure there is enough room for that too. Insert one of the stone shields arms under the upper arm of the U clip and pop the lower one in with the screwdriver.

Just a second thought, Michael, could these be dust shields which are common on brakes?

| Hi Kate, Thanks for the help. I looked at a few 4x4 sites and 'stone guard' seems to work. Michael |
