$150 plus shipping (25-40 depending on location).

Mounts to existing holes in frame, but while at the junkyard some of the 2nd gens didn't have holes (Explorer sport IIRC).

Also included are two extra holes in the mounting flange.

The line of holes on the sides are decorative :D

You should be able to drill if you don't have holes for some reason.

3/16" steel.

As with my other items, I can modify or make changes.

Let me know if you have any questions or want to place an order.

Thanks,

James

I can. If you'll tell me your postal code I'll try to get a good quote.

You want the skid plate, correct?

Bumpers are in the neighborhood of $400usd for shipping alone.

I've sent Jeep bumpers to Switzerland and France. :D

Thanks,

James
 
























Did you ever get any pics of it installed? I have the bumper valance removed and wanted to see the fitment. I'm assuming it clears the SOHC rad and trans lines under the rad? They seem to be lower than that of the OHV.

Never got pics. Not sure about the OHV vs SOHC, but there was plenty of clearance from what I've seen in the Junkyard, and it comes up in behind where the bumper would go.

Not much interest in these so far (I know lack of a pic has something to do with it).

I think this would work no matter what, even if it required some trimming for weird reason.

I'd be willing to give a full refund if you can't make it work, and would also be willing to pay a rebate for installed pics if you can. You'd have to make a good effort drilling and trimming if necessary.

IDK, rebate of actual shipping cost after receipt of pics. That would be a one person deal.

Thanks,

James
 












Yes, I can make you one.

Thanks,

James
 






Interested. That's a good price for a skid plate and I do like the idea of protecting my tranny and coolant lines. Something to add to my Christmas list. :D
 






Any installed pics yet?
 






Yeah pics would help a lot.
 






Sorry guys, don't have any installed pics.

Nope! Went on perfect. It just took my space for my bull bar but I will just modify my bull bar to fit.

This looks pretty nice, looks like it would line up perfectly with the skid plate on my Super Lift.
