How are you handling the heat dissipation for the transmission? The winch is already blocking air flow to the transmission cooler and now the skid plates have no holes for air flow. Any slow low crawling will cause the transmission temp to go above 250 f where we live. Is that not a problem on the east coast?

[@coffeetruckco]

Won’t removing the factory crossmembers and other support structure weaken integrity of the frame? I’m surprised the Cali raised skids make us remove factory support members.

[@yotaxpedition]

No crossmembers were removed. We removed the factory skid plate brackets.

You removed the factory reinforcement at the front of the vehicle. ​How can that possibly be a good thing? @@yotaxpedition

Can you mix and match skids from different manufacturers? If they all bolt to the same frame threads, they should line up, right?

[@chrisridebike8]

Nope. Some are 2 pieces. Some are 3. Some are more. At least for the engine/trans/t-case. Can you run C4 skids under the driveline and CaliRaised for the fuel tank and something else for the control arms? Yes. But if the skids interface with each other like engine/trans/t-case, no, they must be the same.

So you remove the diff drop that you put in for some reason and suddenly dont need because its a hassel to put in spacers, and the factory reinforcement (designeed by engineer's for a good reason im sure), all to install poorly designed skid plates. What is the reason why i should buy cali rased?

[@Sneds_]

Would the front skid work if you kept the diff drop in? Didn't know if it came with more spacers.

[@dennisb.1996]

Look save yourself a headache and buy RCI fabrication skid plates. No muss no fuss install.
