Yes that will fit and it's metal. I installed it on mine.

Rival has a nice one for the engine I installed as well.

Hello Carbon 6G, thanks ,will the OEM front skid plate for the ranger 2024 xl bolt up with the rival motor skid plate ,join up and bolt together or how does that work
Yes, they bolt together exactly like the oem plastic ones. I also added the two front air dams from the FX4 that are in front of the tires.

MB3Z-5D032-K fits everything but the Raptor.

Rival has all of the skid plates you mentioned.

Save yourself some "Coin and get the Bronco Steel Engine plate - MB3Z 5B018 A, fits the ranger and about 45 bucks. Fits where they show the Rival. Good heafty piece, and the trasnsfer case plate, - MB3Z 7E063 A- also from the Bronco, also fits perfect, around 35 bucks. Have both instaled on my Ranger, along with the front skid your asking about. Also have a Rival Gas tank plate. You can jam that front plate behind the stock air dam. FX4's etc, don't have that Dam. Also the Skid plates-All- will fit any Ranger, as they all have the Same Exact Frame with all the bolts and holes. Mine is a XLT 4x4, non FX4, came with no skiders at all. just plastic garbage.

Don't pay attention to the highlighted plate or picture, those are the correct numbers directly from the Ford parts tags that came with the Plates. that pic with the one highlighted plate always pops up for some reason. You'll gat the right plate it if you order those numbers.

Here is a better breakdown with the parts listed by number, thought the stupid highlight is still there.

https://www.fordoempartsdirect.com/...verglades--2-3l-l4-gas/body--frame-components

These are Bronco parts, but fit. The fronts skid is Silver on the Ranger, and searchable, different fromt the part here in the list.

You may want to get some bolts #2 And #4 as well, sold in packs of 4. price per.

https://www.rival4x4usa.com/collections/ford-ranger

You should have the Skid plate brackets, being it's a 4x4. there are some bolts already installed holding the plastic pieces on that can be used to install the steel plates. Get a few extra though, i think i was short 2. same blots hold the transfer case on, 2 bolts.
