r50chilkoot Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I have a 1998 r50 and I am looking to upgrade the skid plate. The stock stock skid plate just isn't cutting it for me and I was wondering if anyone has gone so far as to replace it. If anyone has, do they know where I can buy one? If not has anyone made one before? And if they have, how'd you do it? The more information the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleFR Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 If the search function was easier to use I'd say just do a search but your literally better off to google it then let google take you back to an NPORA thread. There have been several makers of them over the years, actually a guy just had a full set of them in parts for sale. Fleury sells them I believe. I think he even has a missing link and skid plate combo in the works. On the other hand making a missing link and skid plate was easier for me than it was to work the hours to pay for prefab ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushnut Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 check these guys out. keep in mind they are in the US and our $ sucks right now. I have their front skid plate. what can I say about it...its a hunk of steel, all the bolt holes lined up. it is a PITA to take off to get to the oil filter....it keeps rocks and stumps out from bashing my steering rack and lower engine parts. http://www.4x4parts.com/c-1048936-armor-skid-plates-4x4parts-skid-plates-pathfinder.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushnut Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 ah crap! forgot about our friend Fleury's. sorry mate. I'm running his lift kit. top notch stuff. when I got my front skid he wasn't making them at the time. can't wait until he starts making sliders and bumpers!
