I was starting to worry about busting my radiator while trail riding and decided to start making a skid plate for it. It's made out of 3/16" steel and it goes from the bottom of my bumper to the front cross member. It has a couple of bends at each end. I didn't have enough time to make a rear bracket for the cross member yet so we just welded it onto it to get by for the weekend. Here's some pics of how it is for now.
I'm going to be adding some wings on the side of the plate to add some more protection around the side of the radiator. I'm also thinking about cutting the front of the plate to match the curve of the bumper or I may just leave it like it is until I can get a front bumper made and have the plate mount to the bumper the way it is. Comments, questions and suggestions are welcome...
