From time to time, especially for our OEM projects in Europe or Australia, we conduct various strength tests: Deep Stamped Aluminum that is 1/4 inch thick proves to be three times tougher than flat steel protection. These tests involve applying a load of 3 tons per skid plate.
We apply a zinc-flake process to our fasteners and galvanize our aluminum skid plates before applying Akzo Nobel coating. As a result, no issues have been reported thus far from any market including humid and salty Asia and Australia.
There is no offer for a full set yet because we will be releasing skid plates one by one as we perform necessary modifications to our Australia market skids to fit US model.
Engine skid plate has been already added to the website.

Yes, for Raptor we will be releasing 4 skids in total - engine skid (sits next to factory skid, replaces 0.1in thin steel one), transmission, transfer case, gas tank.
Our 1/4in thick aluminum replacement for factory front skid is coming later this year.
So far so good on Raptor.
Still not in the USA, but tested in Mexico and Peru.
US Ranger Raptor is scheduled to be tested next week if not rescheduled.
