I like the fact that the plate extends forward to protect the radiator. I have been surprised that more people are not poking holes in them for lack of protection.

Bets solution for skids! Plain and simple is most functional, IMO

Seems pretty stout to me! Working the truck up to go bang on them in a couple weeks.

I banged on it some on the last wheeling trip. Scratches that's all. No deformities. Ask Kevin at ATO (Fire931) for pricing. TNRunner has one too, may ask his opinion as well.
Looks like he's got a couple versions. The one like mine is the extended one which extends up under the front bumper. The regular one ends at the front cross-member (where the front bolts go in).
In any case you won't be disappointed and Kevin treats his customers right. Remember to choose between 3/16th and 1/4 inch plate.
