FAQ:
Why not weld on skid plates?
Unless you have hours to kill, not to mention a welder, go for it. We've found however that even weld-on versions aren't 1/4" thick steel.

Will these spin off during a hard impact?
No. Built in retention bends prevent the skid plate from rotating backwards.

Is any welding required?
No. Our mounting method allows for a DIY no-weld, truly bolt-in install.

What finish is available?
Rock Hard 4x4 skid plates ship powder coated black with a semi-smooth, semi-gloss finish.

Where is this mount made?
This product, like all RH4x4 parts, was designed, developed, tested, manufactured, and if applicable, powder coated, and shipped in the USA. And we don't mean the 75% legal standard to be able to say Made in USA. We are 100% Made in the United States of America!

Reviewer: Andrew Smugeresky from Mission Viejo, CA United States

These things are amazing. They have saved me a ton of damage to my control arm brackets and they as so easy to install. Would highly recommend these if you are offroading/rock crawling and consider this protection a must have!

Easy to install skid plates	October 25, 2022
Reviewer: Richard Carlson from Santa Rosa, CA United States

Was happy to find these after hearing the crap out of my frame side front LCA mounts. They install super easily (do not require control arm / control arm bolt removal) and can take a beating.

Very good product	September 15, 2022
Reviewer: D Rowe from Wisconsin Dells, WI United States

These WILL fit a 2021 Jeep JL Wrangler no problem, although only listed for a Gladiator. Very easy install, however put a support under the back edge to hold them against the frame when torqueing the bolt otherwise they want to rotate.
