E&E Off-Road 200 Series Skid Plate System (1 Viewer)

For those with the stock front bumper, to attach the PSCG, there are 2 brackets that are riveted onto the crash bar. I used a pickle fork to remove the brackets on mine, an air chisel will work too.

This video shows how to remove similar brackets from a GX.



I also cut the lower plastic bumper tabs that attached to those brackets. I have not secured the lower bumper to anything yet, but it should easily attach to the crash bar.

@turbo8 is this specifically for the LX or the LC as well?

The skids are back in stock. 3D model and installation instructions updated on site.

Total price and shipping reduced from previous advertised price. ~$100 in savings.

Good to know.

The rivets securing my brackets were already loose and making noise, so off they came.

Yea when I saw them it was already 8pm and I didn’t want to bug my neighbors with the sound of air tools.

You can wiggle it back and forth like a loose tooth by resting your body against the ground and using your Body weight to pull and push.

A rubber mallet and tire breaker will also help you break it

Anyone know an installer in the Denver area that can put these on for me?

I’m sure Slee will do it if you don’t want to tackle it.

Thanks for the update! I wet sanded the front skid and oil filter access panel with 3000 grit sandpaper to make the finishes blend together.

The new full sets don't have this issue.

Wow what a stand up company. I ordered some front recovery brackets a few days before they announced their 10% Labor Day Sale and EE offroad gave me the discount without me even asking.

Love to see and support companies like this. Thanks @turbo8

I wanted to keep the bumper skin supports and most of the plastic splash shields there long term so made some cuts to the new front skid extension. Need to clean things up a bit when I get home to the rest of my tools but I am happy with the results.

Thanks for reminding me. Here is what I did to mine. Cut the mouting tabs, added M6 rivet nuts to the crash bar, and used the same countersunk hardware to secure the bumper skin to it.

That looks clean! Will do the same on mine with updated front skid.

Has anyone run these skids with a TJM bumper?

Well, you guys didn't buy all these fast enough to keep me from ordering a set. Excited to get them.
