Bolt-on front skid plate for all 2WD & 4WD Vanagon models. Manufactured from 1/8" plate steel and coated in a durable wrinkle finish powdercoat, this strong (yet lightweight) skid plate can withstand some serious abuse. We have pounded these on many off-road adventures and are very pleased with the strength and durability. The long sides of the plate are formed at a 90° angle for added rigidity, and are drilled for bungee cords or ratchet strap hooks to tie down gear you might wish to store in this location.

Installation takes less than thirty minutes and utilizes existing threaded provisions for mounting. Basic hand tools are all you need, with the exception of some minor drilling that is required on 2WD vehicles. Syncros are a direct bolt on! This product includes all the necessary hardware and detailed installation instructions.

NOTE: Installation of this product requires moving the spare tire to another location. There is not enough room above the skid plate for the spare tire.
