Did you opt to keep the FX4 front skid plate? If so, how is the fitment/alignment with the Shrockworks and the factory skid?
I’m not sure if there is a difference other than the color.
That said, I recently replaced my tremors bumper with an AFN front bumper which replaces the stock skid plate as well as the small plate behind it, and when I pulled the stock skid plate off I was surprised at just how thin it was. The front plate that came with my bumper is 6mm aluminum and is very beefy, much more so than the stock one. The rear plate that came with the bumper is 4mm steel and made that small plate seem like plastic.

Installed Shrockworks skids and rear shock guards from 589 Fabrication. Think they will provide peace of mind on the trails.

I just got my shock skids. How did you install them? I can't find any instructions anywhere.

Straight forward just remove bottom shock mount bolt and mount skid using new hardware. One thing to watch is the 1st ones I got from them were not wide enough to fit. Customer service was great, and they sent new ones out with a return label right away.
