Maintenance Tips

• Inspect after off-road or heavy-duty use: Look for dents, deep scrapes, or bends that could affect protection.

• Tighten mounting hardware: Re-torque bolts every 3–6 months or after impacts to maintain secure fitment.

• Clean regularly: Rinse off mud, sand, and road salt to prevent buildup and protect the aluminum surface.

• Check exhaust and drivetrain components: While the skid plate is off, inspect catalytic converter, transmission, and surrounding parts for damage or leaks.

• Maintain coating: Touch up scratched or exposed areas to prevent oxidation and extend lifespan.

• Ensure clearance: Remove any trapped debris to prevent rattling, vibration, or heat retention around the exhaust.
