i believe they are the same!! ps its been 25k miles since i took mine off !Itossed the plastic park last years garage clean out.hate to revive a thread from the dead, but is the configuration up front the same on the 22s where i can remove the air dam?
It should be, I would advise cutting and removing the outer sides and tucking the middle into the skid plate to eliminate the gap between the plate and bumper and somewhat smooth out the airflow beneath the truckhate to revive a thread from the dead, but is the configuration up front the same on the 22s where i can remove the air dam?
Just as @Squatchranger says, you can delete the air dam and close the gap at the same time - and you get a free t-shirt if you post pics of the mod.hate to revive a thread from the dead, but is the configuration up front the same on the 22s where i can remove the air dam?
mine wont have a skid. still removable? will look like this 21It should be, I would advise cutting and removing the outer sides and tucking the middle into the skid plate to eliminate the gap between the plate and bumper and somewhat smooth out the airflow beneath the truck
you should be able to take it off regardless idk if you can tuck it if you dont have the skid plate down there is yours 4x4?mine wont have a skid. still removable? will look like this 21
I did a really rough trail this past weekend and never contacted the front airdam. The approach angle if you are being smart and using some off-center approaches is darn near 50-60*.Did mine, looks way better and improves scrapping clearance for you offr roaders, only takes about 10 minutes with a small impact gun. If your truck is a daily driver for MPG i would leave it on.
again, my truck wont have a skid, as the one pictured in my previous postYou can remove it but modding it to close a gap? No. The gap exists because of the skid plate and the skid plate holds the modified dam in place, using the tow hook bolts to pinch it in place.
it will be 4x4 but without a skidIdk if you can tuck it if you dont have a skid plate there but you can take it off

If I have a non fx4 ranger, am I able to install a fx4 skid plate and eliminate that gap? Do I need a different bumper?I removed mine probably the 2nd week I had my truck (last july). I'm pretty sure it had a small effect on fuel mileage, but I doubt more than about 1mpg. I still saved mine and will probably look into reinstalling it for long highway trips.
Also one thing to note, you end up with a small gap between the bottom of the bumper and the front of the skid plate. I haven't fixed this yet, but I definitely see this as creating a small amount of turbulence over say, the FX4 where the skid plate comes all the way up to the front bumper. might be something to consider.
Dylan, that depends on whether or not you have tow hooks. If you do, it’s easy enough. If you don’t it becomes complicated.If I have a non fx4 ranger, am I able to install a fx4 skid plate and eliminate that gap? Do I need a different bumper?
I have a 4x4 and replaced the skid plate with the FX4 one. It did not require a different bumper.If I have a non fx4 ranger, am I able to install a fx4 skid plate and eliminate that gap? Do I need a different bumper?
if you're able to could you post a picture of what it looks like underneath? thanksI have a 4x4 and replaced the skid plate with the FX4 one. It did not require a different bumper.
