that was a stupid title but oh well. i recently high centered in some deep clay, dug around for hours, until after dark and finally called a buddy to come yank me out of the hole. well in the process of yankin me out backwards...it bent up my skid plate. not the whole thing but like the second half of it. the part that extends from the very front skid plate and covers the transfer case, front diff, etc. it is no longer any good. well anyway...what are some options for replacing that? i know i can go to junk yard and stuff but what are some things you guys have done? maybe post some pics of one's you've built or some low cost alternatives?

 

build ur own thats a complete one piece from the front or buy a budbuilt or the cheapest way would b to find another piece and just replace it

 

well you have a few alternatives.

take it off, keep it off.
replace it with stock
make your own skid plate

hey thanks for your help guys. ill look into that

 

budbuilt makes a cool product. its functional, beefy, and adds a nice look to the front end.

 

id love to have one of those but...they are kinda spendy for me right now. considering im laid off cuz my work just exploded, i cant really afford $300 for a skid plate. junk yard is lookin good lol
