Anyone know if these impact ground clearance ratings?

I have not measured the difference but its likely 1-2” under the engine/tc. The setup removes a cross member and overall tucks up nicely.

Thanks for posting those pictures. From the looks of it, there is essentially no loss of ground clearance under the vehicle. awesome!

Great pics. Thanks for posting. I ordered mine yesterday. Did you remove the stock skids or do these mount on top of them?

You will remove one cross member and leave the factory skids

Have you changed the oil yet with it installed? I see the hole for the drain plug but what about the filter? Mine should be here Friday.

Not yet. Plug looks easily accessed and from what i remember there shouldn’t be a problem with the filter

Wow, kudos to ASFIR. I ordered the oil pan skid on the 19th and it was delivered today. I'll try to get it installed this weekend.

Dang quicker than my engine skid! Looks like it’s held up in NY.

Received earlier today and just finished installing it.

Looks great; I’ve got the same rancho skid.

Yea it’s stout and super easy to install. I have a Metalcloak front diff cover and skid I picked up for $50, but didn’t feel like changing the fluid yet. Lol

I thought about the asfir diff guards but the rancho protects the diff drain.

The metal cloaks look nice but don’t have have any openings to drain dirt/muck/etc.

Let me know if you decide to put them on
