Skid Plate
Skid Plate
Use the factory mounting points. But make sure you attach it to the bumper bolts. Do this any way you have to. In the video the car had a piece of square stock connecting the two bumper brackets.
You notice that the skid plate is molded for strength. Use at least 3/16 aluminum.
Think about a rear diff cover and something for the rear control arms, ect.
I would study up on how to fab a prerunner or a rally racer.
Try driving on some forest roads with your diesel like that rally car. You might find out that your car has all the power it needs!
BTW any one broke a w123 control arm off yet. Looks weak, like it would tear out of the body of you hit a ditch or small rocks? Any ideas on this.
