Front skid plate after airdam removal??

[Thekidcasual]

Has any one found a front skid plate that goes with the stock bumper set up for our trucks? Not looking to change th bumper just want a skid plate so nothing flies up into the engine bay

Not yet. I doubt there's anything out there that you can buy. I'll probably end up making something when the weather warms up enough for me to get back into my shop. I did see one that someone posted a few months ago that they had made themselves. Sorry, I don't remember which thread that was in though.

Haha ok yea I’m in Southern California, whenever you make a prototype keep me posted..

I’m in Seattle, I would be very interested as well. There was someone in Arizona in the Rebel section looking at something as well.

I love the ADD bumper for the skid plate but have no need or desire to put a light bar on the front.

Hey man just following up, it already HOT in California. So I’m hoping it’s hotter where you’re and you have the skid plate mocked up and ready to send to me lol

Haha...I'm not guaranteeing I'll have it finished in a month, just that I might be able to working on it then. I have enough deadlines at work...I'm not giving myself deadlines at home LOL.

Was searching the same topic today after an off-road outing this past weekend. Seems like the best result is to head to a local fabricator / metal working shop and have one done up for you.

This thread has some good examples: https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/front-skid-plate.21724/
