hello folks lol oh the rad skid is nothing special at all. i took some fairly thick sheet metal i had laying around and bent it and trimmed out for the mounts as you can see. uses the four holes in the factory impact bar (bumper) underneath and the two down below where the oil skid is to mount. like said nothing fancy but has served its purpose few times lol

Does it rest on the lower radiator end tank?

What's to stop it from hitting it?

there is a gap from the rad its not a whole lot but it is some and there is nothing stopping it. was just something quick i put on, but you have to hit it very very hard to push it back enough to hit the rad, i tried and tried even used a jack to try and push it back, to it. its solid enough it should stay away but i will be upgrading to a BARTON skid once the bumper is done

Looks good but don't put black rims. I like the look you got. A new bumper will set if off right well done.
I hate to advocate weird chemicals, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone...but
they've always worked for me.
