Only 4WD with the FX4 pkg. have skid plates. You can have 4WD with no skid plates.I was watching a video on changing the oil on my 2019 Ranger. It showed removing a skid plate to help keep things from getting messy when draining the oil. My truck, 2WD does not have the skid plate. Is the skid plate only for 4WD or off road applications?
I don’t know if that’s correct. I have a base XL no FX4 package. And my truck has skid plates.Only 4WD with the FX4 pkg. have skid plates. You can have 4WD with no skid plates.
Oh wow...I stand corrected. Thanks.I don’t know if that’s correct. I have a base XL no FX4 package. And my truck has skid plates.
Can you get a picture? Per specs, the only NA Rangers that have skid plates are FX4 models.I don’t know if that’s correct. I have a base XL no FX4 package. And my truck has skid plates.
That was my understanding as well.Can you get a picture? Per specs, the only NA Rangers that have skid plates are FX4 models.
Here ya go. I believe the op is refering to the plate in the first photo. Its held on with 4 bolts. Only the back 2 have to be completely removed for an oil change. (Losen up the front 2 and slide the plate backwards) The xl 4x4s have plates. They just aren't as sexy as the fx4 stuff.Oh wow...I stand corrected. Thanks.
Is yours a 4WD?Here ya go. I believe the op is refering to the plate in the first photo. Its held on with 4 bolts. Only the back 2 have to be completely removed for an oil change. (Losen up the front 2 and slide the plate backwards) The xl has plates. They just aren't as sexy as the fx4 stuff.
You can see the half shaft in the photo... he has a 4wdIs yours a 4WD?
Yes 4x4 didn’t mean to left turn your thread. I don’t think the 2wd models come with the plate most oil change videos show. Maybe that’s a good thing? Less work come oil change time.Is yours a 4WD?
this is what I think of as a Ranger skid plateHere ya go. I believe the op is refering to the plate in the first photo. Its held on with 4 bolts.

Yea that’s fine. The XL doesn’t have the sexy stuff. But steel panels on the underside are what they are.this is what I think of as a Ranger skid plate
