Features & Product Details
Hardcore rock crawlers and light duty fire road explorers can utilize the Rock Hard 4x4 skid plate system for their build list. The 3/16"" thick plate steel skid plate protects the engine oil pan from trail debris and other obstructions. This unique design provides the only skid plate system to fully protect your dual catalytic converter system!
This 3/16"" thick skid plate is manufactured using a solid sheet of steel that's formed and hand welded into its protective design. It features creature comforts including a laser cut access door for the drain plug and RH4x4 exclusive ""rock dome"" bolt head protectors to be used with the factory supplied mounting hardware. This skid system is undoubtedly the industry's best premium system available.
RH4x4 is first to use laser cut and precision bent drop brackets that use the frame, not the motor mount, as front support locations. This means the skid transfers zero engine and transmission vibration throughout the chassis. This allows the motor and transmission to continue to flex in their mounts naturally without bracing them to the frame rails. This creates a smoother, quieter ride that lacks the annoying creaks, ringing, vibrating and harsh performance of inferior systems. The rear of our skid plate mounts to the transmission cross member.
NOTE: Aftermarket cross members may require customer supplied bolts. The pattern is correct but some manufacturers are using different thread patterns. As with any major vehicle upgrade peace of mind can be included with the help of professional installation of the system.
We know that off road driving can be a rough proposition for your vehicle's undercarriage, so it makes sense to protect your vital systems with a Rick Hard 4X4 parts JK Oil Pan, Transmission and Dual Catalytic Coverter Skid Plate. This system fastens to the frame in front of each motor mount, and at the cross over in the rear, to afford maximum protection from all the off road has to throw at your vehicle.
To maximize protection and minimize maintenance issues, the Rock Hard Aluminum Short Arm Oil Pan/Transmission Skid Plate Kit Black has a left-hand extension engineered to protect the normally exposed converter in a configuration aimed at reducing expensive repair bills. Additionally, oil changes are made easy with a splash shielded oil pan drain access hole, and all bolts are outfitted with tapered bolt head protectors, which allows rocks and debris to easily slide over them while still allowing you to get a socket over the bolt for easy removal.

The Rock Hard 4X4 Aluminum Oil Pan/Transmission Skid Plate offers some of the best protection you can bring with you on the trail. Your oil pan, and your transmission are some of the most vulnerable exposed areas while enduring aggressive trails. The slightest of impacts on rocks or tree stumps could potentially puncture your oil pan which means you will quickly lose oil pressure, which means you lose your motor. And if you damage the transmission housing, then you could lose fluid in the transmission causing leaks, overheating, and before you know it, your weekend is ruined.
The Rock Hard Oil Pan and Transmission Skid are fabricated from ¼” thick plate aluminum, and feature laser cut precision bent drop brackets that install on the frame, rather than the motor mounts as means of support. This will hinder any further vibrations against your chassis. This will allow your motor, and transmission to flex naturally from their mounts rather than becoming bound by the skid plates. The rear of the skid plate will mount to your transmission cross member.
Included with the Rock Hard Skid Plate are the exclusive RH-6000, and RH-6000-LA hardware kit which features the in-house made “Rock Dome” bolt head projectors. These will keep the bolt heads safe from harsh scraping, etc. Also, included with the Oil Pan/Transmission/Dual Cat Skid are the support brackets, Rock Dome Bolt Head Projectors, Hardware, and Installation Instructions.
