Well let’s just say this wasn’t planned and the armor needed an upgrade. The road grader was doing maintenance on our road and I managed to smack a large rock.
I got that tingly feeling something was amiss. Stopped for a quick look and said a few 4 letter words upon seeing a speedy drip from the transmission area. I managed a very quick trip back to our shop to get it parked and give my husband (my personal mechanic) a heads up. He wasn’t real thrilled but was also glad I got it back to the shop and he wasn’t replacing the transmission.
The factory skid plate(if you can even call it that) did save my oil pan but the transmission pan was sadly a different story. Upgraded to an aluminum pan, ARB skid plates, and an Icon 3” lift.
Looks and protection upgrade Can’t have it looking like the Mom rig it is.
