It’s super beefy 1/4-in aluminum. And way lighter than e.g. stock thin steel Badlands under guard (which doesn’t have any ports at all, see attached).

It’s good that oil change is just not an every day routine ?.

Got some RnD going for Badlands folks :like: This 1/16-in heavy steel skid must be replaced by deep stamped 1/4-in lightweight & non-corrosive Aluminum ?

You cannot remove the filter without taking skid plate off - this product was designed as a supreme under vehicle protection over thin factory plastic.

Enjoy 50$ our 1/4-in. thick stamped aluminum skid plate with the code BSFORUM50 Free same business day shipping for the orders received before noon Central Time.

We are experiencing growing numbers of orders for this Skid Plate, and we believe a big share of those are through the Forum, thank you for your trust. To make the installation easier and smoother, please be gentle with our special insert nuts with wires - unfortunately the wires can break off...

Absolutely, $50 OFF with code BSFORUM50 at the checkout :like:

It attaches to existing mounting points, no-drill no-cut installation.

Making that big parts of 1/4 alloy would be quite costly in the end however we will see what we can do. While most of area under those felt covers seem to be just empty space, it maybe makes sense to make a smaller skid plate that will be under the felt eventually covering only what's important...

So far on our test Badlands we have only front thin metal front skid plate and all the rest are just plastic dust guards. Would love to make those sides off our deep stamped aluminum sheet ?

Agreed, we just followed the way Ford made their OEM plastic where they have only oil change port.

Will be happy to verify this. For all other vehicles, when we make our aluminum skid plates we try to offer as many pieces as possible even if there are some factory steel skids there already (you can see our kits all over Google by searching "Rival Skid Plates" etc) . Will see how it goes for...

We are currently working on the designs this month however with lots of other projects on hands right now it's hard to predict we'd have stock this year.
