RE: Skid plate question

Anything will fit if you have an arc welder and some scrap metal...[:D]

Is that an OEM bull bar? Who makes the skid plate? Have you asked the manufacturer?

RE: Skid plate question

RE: Skid plate question

I don't know if helps, but here is a picture of the OE skid plate that bolts to the square brush guard.
