Aluminum vs. steel — why we build in 1/4″ aluminum
| What matters underbody | Our 1/4″ 5052-H32 aluminum | Typical 3/16″ steel |
|---|---|---|
| Resistance to permanent bending | Higher — bend resistance rises with the square of thickness | Baseline |
| Weight | About half — easier on payload | Heavier — a full set can top 120 lb |
| Corrosion | Won't rust | Rusts where the coating chips |
| Surface hardness (drag over rock) | Softer — can gouge on granite | Harder — steel's real edge |
Thickness does more work than material name: resistance to permanent bending scales with the square of plate thickness, so 1/4″ 5052-H32 aluminum takes a bigger hit before it stays bent than the 3/16″ steel most kits run — at about half the weight, and it never rusts. Steel’s honest advantage is surface hardness: if your truck lives on rock ledges, steel gouges less. For most owners, the thicker aluminum wins the trade.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common questions about our skid plates and armor
Does it fit both 4x4 and 4x2 F-150s?
Yes — fits both 4x4 and 4x2.
Does the transmission skid / full package replace the factory felt cover?
Yes — it replaces the factory felt under-tray that's prone to sagging and failing with a real 1/4" aluminum skid plate.
Does it fit the PowerBoost hybrid?
Yes — the package includes an extension plate to reach the further-back crossmember on PowerBoost trucks.
What about the Active Air Dam on 2021+ trucks?
Two options: keep it by choosing the Active-Air-Dam-compatible engine skid, or remove the air dam for maximum coverage.
Does it fit the F-150 Tremor?
Yes.
Will it work on a lifted truck?
It's not compatible with trucks lifted 4" or more — those use crossmember drop brackets that interfere.
What is a skid plate, and what does it protect?
Underbody armor that shields your oil pan, transmission, catalytic converter, transfer case, and front differential from rocks, road debris, potholes, and trail impacts.
What are Juggernaut skid plates made of?
1/4" 5052-H32 aluminum, powder-coated black, with steel mounting brackets where needed — made in-house in Wheat Ridge, Colorado from US-sourced aluminum.
Why aluminum instead of steel?
Aluminum is roughly half the weight of steel and won't rust — full-strength underbody protection without the weight penalty or corrosion of steel armor.
Will a skid plate hurt my gas mileage?
Negligibly — an aluminum set weighs about half what steel does, so the added weight is minimal.
Do I need one if I mostly drive on the street?
Yes — potholes, road debris, and steep driveways damage undercarriages even off the trail. It's cheap insurance against expensive repairs.
Do I have to drill or modify my vehicle to install it?
No — every Juggernaut skid plate is 100% bolt-on to factory mounting points. No drilling, cutting, or welding.
Can I install it myself?
Yes — bolt-on installation with basic hand tools, usually about 1–2 hours. Step-by-step guides are on each product's install page.
Can I still change my oil with the skid plate installed?
Yes — our plates include oil-drain access cutouts so you can do routine oil changes without removing the skid plate.
Will it affect engine or transmission cooling?
No — the plates are designed to preserve factory airflow to coolers and components.
Will it reduce my ground clearance?
Minimal — plates contour to the frame and tuck up against the underbody so they slide over obstacles rather than hang low.
Will it rust or corrode?
No — aluminum doesn't rust, and the black powder coat adds further corrosion resistance.
Does adding a skid plate void my vehicle warranty?
No — under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a bolt-on aftermarket part can't void your factory warranty on its own.
What warranty do Juggernaut skid plates include?
A lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
Where are they made and how fast do they ship?
Made in the USA in Wheat Ridge, Colorado and shipped nationwide next business day. Use the year/make/model selector on any product page to confirm fit.
