Does anyone have suggestions for a skid plate for the badlands rear trailing control arm. The JCr one I ordered does not seem to fit . I looked at the ASFIR one and it also does not fit the badlands

Foutz makes some excellent stuff. Some of their Raptor and Bronco parts are works of art!You have the factory"skid"which obviously is not enough. Foutz MS makes one that will fit.

The ASFIR ones WILL NOT fit over the mounts that have the factory skids.
I just looked at the Carli ones and asked them if they would work with the "factory" skids that Badlands have (don't know if any others do)Foutz makes some excellent stuff. Some of their Raptor and Bronco parts are works of art!
That Foutz one is pretty slick, hopefully it will work for you.Does anyone have suggestions for a skid plate for the badlands rear trailing control arm. The JCr one I ordered does not seem to fit . I looked at the ASFIR one and it also does not fit the badlands
You get what you pay for. This is like every other hobby - expensive! Foutz Motorsports usually tests all their stuff before releasing them to the public. I rate them right up there with SVC. I run their tie rods. Their tie rods are $1K.I just looked at the Carli ones and asked them if they would work with the "factory" skids that Badlands have (don't know if any others do)
The Foutz are $$$ at almost $500, the Carli's look promising except that they don't have the UHMW.
Sent a PM to them asking..Did Carli say it works on a badlands. I am just looking to hide scrapes and have already protected most of the other parts that get snagged when you off-road on the woody, rocky, narrow north east trails. A arm, rear shocks, diff etc.
This is what my 2023 badlands looks like... OP is missing the badlands skids.That Foutz one is pretty slick, hopefully it will work for you.
That mount looks completely different than my '21 BD that has the factory thin skids. They must have changed the design later in the model years. Mine looks like an obvious tacked on piece.
OP said above that they posted the wrong pic. Their Badlands has the factory skids welded to the mounts.This is what my 2023 badlands looks like... OP is missing the badlands skids.
OP Do you have full steel skidplates everywhere else from the factory? or are you missing other pieces too?
