Nice looking. Does it protect the steering rod as well as the electronic sway bar disconnect?I don't know for sure.
But if you're looking to add a steel skid for your plastic front bumper, take a look at the M.O.R.E. steel skid plate. I just put this skid plate on mine. It took me longer to take the POS stock plastic and thin metal skid off than to install the MORE unit. Took a total of 30 min from start to finish. Plus, the MORE skid is thicker than the MOPAR steel bumper skid.
Here's a better look from the front. It's designed to protect the electronic sway bar disconnect. But because I'm still stock height, it does cover the area directly in front of drag link. If I was lifted, this area would be more exposed. Nothing is really going to protect the tie rod/drag link. If you're worried about that, you'd need to get some HD steering (like Synergy, Steersmart, etc).

I currently have the optional steel bumper on my Rubi and the steel skid that comes with it protects only the sway bar disconnect. What do you think of this skid---Here's a better look from the front. It's designed to protect the electronic sway bar disconnect.

From what I've read on this forum, everyone likes the Asfir products. This does not look like it extends far enough downward or rearward from the frame horns to really provide any protection to the steering linkage. I don't know of any bumper skid (or anything else on the market) that provides protection for the linkage.
