100 Series Skid plate

[trdcorolla]

I recently installed one of the Asfir skid plates. Aside from having to use a few washers to space out the back it was a good fit. Good price and pretty fast shipping.

What's the weight difference between the ASFIR and the stock skid?

 

[phatdragon]

Asfir skid is probably about 15-20 lbs heavier, but much thicker material and more coverage. Aluminum compared to the stock steel unit.

Is slider will fit with Asfir skid plate ?

 

[phatdragon]

I'm not sure I understand your question. Can you elaborate?

 

[David*BJ70]

Yes, indeed, I will express my question differently.

I already got in touch with Asfir a few weeks ago. I intend to buy all the protection kit. The front skid under the engine and the one that covers the transmission. Having a HDJ100, it is the only supplier who sells a skid plate that can be installed under my vehicle knowing that the transmission is further back compared to the gasoline model.

Thus, now I realize, maybe, nobody will be able to answer since you guys only order the front skid plate.

So my question is : with the skid installed, the one that covers the transmission, can rock sliders be installed on the frame. Do typical rock sliders such as ARBs and Slee that require U-bolt can be installed or the skid plate will interfere with U-bolts?

I believe, possibly, only Asfir will be able to answer my question ...

Looking at the picture on their site it would seem there would be no interference with bolt on sliders but I would confirm with them. Looks like all of the mounting points are well inbound of the frame.

Edit:
I found this thread that shows some of the mounting and it looks like they do go to the frame, so there may be interference with some sliders.

I don't own these, or have sliders, but I read a thread about a guy who mounted these with U bolt on sliders. He had interference and had to space the skids so the sliders fit. Its on here somewhere with pictures, I would do a search

If you want OEM, Google the part number with the word "used" and pull up images. When you see what you want, click on it. Bet you can find a used one cheap, but might be a bear to ship.

I haven't found a used one yet.. if you come across one let me know.

You’re looking for OEM? I have one. The finish is grimy, and the foam strip is deteriorating, but there’s nothing wrong with it otherwise.

I would even suggest just putting up a wanted ad in the classifieds here on Mud. I don't know about the AFSIR skids, but Dissent also is putting out aluminum skids. I am not sure if they sell the skid plates ala carte, but the are a quality item. I have Slee skids on my truck, but if I was buying today I would most likely go with the Dissent skids.

I got my answer in post #53 in the link above.

There is one on EBay right now, but they want $275 for it. Seems steep.

I paid $191 with shipping from Israel in October, just FYI.

Are you talking about OEM or the Asfir skid plate? If OEM, what's the source?

 

[ClassyJalopy]

I have an OEM front skid plate that in good nick (will need a coat of paint tho) and the foam strip is long gone too. I will sell it to you super cheap.

275 is the brand new price what I was quoted.

You might've found your answer but I doubt any two brands of sliders have the exact same mounting points. Also, Post #53 could be an non-AHC vehicle. Most AHC sliders have only 2 outriggers vs 3. You have AHC, correct?

Good Point
