RCI skid plate

[RedDakooter05]

Does anyone know if these work on 2wd trucks?

Frames are the same so I don't see why not.

My extra parts showed up on Friday and the install took all of 30 minutes. I was able to do the whole thing by myself easily. No off-road experience yet but they look great. The workmanship is top notch and everything fits together well. I'll post pictures when I'm back on my computer. All this to say I can absolutely recommend RCI.

Be nice if they could make the pinch seam covers for our trucks like the Bronco.

As promised, a picture installed:

Honestly just removing the air dam makes it look good…

I do like their skids. I do have an oxidation forming already from 2 months on the vehicle at the front top crease on my skid. Just from driving. I haven’t scratched them yet. Seems powder coat wasn’t great in that spot. I’ll post a picture later. Kinda bummed it’s rusted/pitted already.

I would reach out to them and see what they are willing to do. That's definitely unacceptable.

I ended up going with the FX4 skid plate. RCI seems like a more heavy duty plate but for some reason I just find the look of the FX4 one a little more appealing. Time will tell if I made the right call!

They are to totally different types. The FX4 is more of a brush / gravel guard, you'll bust right through it on an actual rock. The RCI ones are heavy duty for hard trail use, two different use cases really.

Had the FX4 plates and they did just fine. Unless you are truly trying to hit giant boulders for absolutely no reason then you should not be where you are with a Ranger

The front is okay. But to call this a skid is silly.

Agreed, that got a hearty chuckle when I pulled it off.

I think I’m most excited to take this air dam off! Lol
