These skid plates are completely bolt-on and protect the mounting tabs of the lower control arms on the Dana 30 or 44 front axle. Why does this matter? Simply because the mounting tabs are among the first parts to hit the rocks and they are pretty easily damaged. They're made of surprisingly thin material and we've seen and heard of them being literally torn off while wheeling.
A set includes one skid plate for the left side and another for the right, as well as all mounting hardware and easy to follow instructions.
Another benefit to having bolt-on skids is that you can move them from one vehicle to another. For example, if you sell your Jeep or it gets wrecked, the skids can be removed and put on your next Jeep.....if it's one of the models they fit, of course. We've had several customers do this and they LOVED not having to pay someone to weld on another set.
These skid plates are built to take a beating! They are made from 1/4" steel plate and use custom-made, grade 5 U-bolts and carriage bolts to mount them to the axle. They fit tight against the sway bar mounting tab on one side and up against the axle housing on the other side. The are also attached using the control arm mounting bolt so there's no way they'll rotate.
These skids are designed to fit with stock or aftermarket control arms and will work with virtually any aftermarket track bar. We've redesigned the passenger side skid to create more clearance for the larger track bars that several companies are now making.
