i have a small version of a product similar to this made by curt that is ok, but not quite large enough for harder hits. I was looking for something a little more durable and came across this online. I have not used or purchased it yet, but looks like it would work great.

Thought I would post as it may be a cheaper alternative for those who don’t want to buy a new bumper, but also don’t want the factory bumper to cause body damage flexing off-road like others have seen.

I have not purchased this myself yet, but plan to. Seems like a cheap insurance policy, that also has a lot of good features built in such as being used as a step, hi lift mount, flag mount etc.

Looks like it might work.

Do they make a Skid-Plate Skid Plate Protector ? The further out from the hitch we go the less the departure angle .
Don't mind me I'm just being "silly" ! (?)
. . . just wondering, is there a skid mark protector for my underwear, for when I wind up back slipping off the rocks at Moab and wind up severely pinching my ass cheeks ? :CWL:

I ended up ordering the body armor skid from amazon. It is really nice and has saved my rear (bumper) many times. Very cheap insurance against bumper, and tailgate damage when going up very steep inclines, or dropping off a ledge.

I just bought one of these for $30 and flipped it upside down. It fits perfect with my 37" tire on the stock carrier. It almost touches the tire so I hardly lose any clearance. It works quite well.
