    Mine fell off over a year ago. Still haven't done anything about it. OEM price was ridiculously high. Some good aftermarket ones are overkill, unless you are rock crawling. I am off road a bit, and would really like to have something on there, but have not found it yet.

    This is what Im finding. Need one and truck is in for frame (they started today) The OEM one was insane expensive. and the after market ones I have found you are correct about. Total overkill for me.. Ill keep looking. Maybe somebody will come along with an idea..
    Thanks

    Back in 2012 when my 2001 frame was replaced, I got a new gas tank skid. I guess they don't do that anymore.

    Those LowRangeoffroad ones look pretty good. At least they are not $1,000. Logger, do you have one?

    Not yet but when the time comes that's what I'm getting. Reasonably priced compared to others I've seen.

    I got a low range skid plate a few months ago. Think it was $200 shipped.
    Money well spent, only if I had time to bang it up...
