What are these 4 bolts on front of frame for?

[terigox]

Hello! New owner of a 2021 Ram Rebel, and I’ve been collecting my add ons and getting truck ready.
I noticed these 4 bolts on the front (2 on each side) under the front, what are these for?

I looked around and doesn’t seem like there are any more forward skid plates other than at first cross member.

Can anyone share, and what should I buy to go there?

I believe it's the mounting location for the front automatic air dam. Since you have a rebel it wouldn't have been installed.

This video shows it being removed at about 0:45

Thank you @Techguy2000 ! You’re right on, I bet that’s exactly what they’re for.

also thanks for the welcome @Fatherof3 !

it’s a shame there’s no like front skid plate or something that would mount there, seems like prime real estate.

Here is a thread from a few weeks ago where a few folks posted front skid plates they had made themselves or by local fab shops if you want some ideas!

Front Skid Plate

I removed my Air Dam last night and I noticed there is no protection from loose rocks on the road under my truck. The engine is completely unprotected!!!! Does anyone have a part number or suggestion for a basic cheap skid to protect my engine? Check out the image of it wide open.
