Not sure about your vehicle? Use the fitment checker above — it verifies your exact year, drive, and engine.

The largest, lowest, most exposed component under your Super Duty leaves the factory with zero protection.

Your Super Duty's fuel tank is big, hangs low, and comes from Ford completely bare — one sharp rock, ice chunk, or piece of road debris can dent or puncture it. A punctured tank doesn't just leak fuel; it strands the truck wherever it happened and turns into a tow plus a four-figure tank replacement. This plate puts a quarter inch of solid aluminum between your tank and whatever the road or trail throws up at it.

Aluminum can't rust the way steel plates do — every scratch on steel armor is where corrosion starts, especially with road salt. Ours is 1/4" 5052 aluminum, powder-coated black, CNC plasma-cut and press-brake formed in our Wheat Ridge, Colorado shop.

Specs

  • Full 1/4" aluminum plate — lighter than steel, no rust, ever

  • All hardware included
  • Designed, cut, and finished in Colorado — 100% made in USA

Aluminum vs. steel — why we build in 1/4″ aluminum

Comparison of 1/4-inch 5052-H32 aluminum and typical 3/16-inch steel skid plates
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.

“If this is anything like the engine/trans plate, it should be perfect. If it’s not 5 stars, I updated my review… will install in spring when it’s not 0f outside.”

Customer review photo from james jones

Excellent shipping and packaging, not a scratch . I ordered on 8/10 and both items were delivered on 8/13. I installed the gas tank skid on the weekend and all brackets and hardware worked out as detailed on instructions. Only two negatives were no Loctite was packed with plates as listed (of course I had to go get some) & the printable instructions have black background. This may be able to be changed but I didn’t print because of that. So it could just be user error. The product is solid and very secure the way they designed it. It also follows the contour of the tank. I didn’t realize that it swept up in the rear until I put the plate together. I still have the engine skid plate to install this weekend so I will leave another review after that.

Skid plate adds protection I wanted . Kit is built well and fit nicely. The only thing I would suggest for the price you pay is that it should come with an extra threaded clip since attaching points are tight to get to and one clip during install slipped into the attaching point hole into frame of truck and I was not able to retrieve it for use. I ended up welding heavy wire to a flange nut to fish up in frame for attaching one mounting bracket. I had the same problem when installing the engine, transmission and transfer case skid plates

The skid plate for my 2022 F350 fit perfectly and was easy to install. Its a very sturdy plate secured with good hardware, I believe its gonna do the job, or at least give me piece of mind that I won't end up with a hole in my oil pan/filter.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions about our skid plates and armor

Does it fit both gas and diesel engines?

Yes — with oil-filter access for the 6.7L diesel, the 7.3L gas, and the smaller 6.8L V8 gas engine.

Does it fit the Super Duty Tremor?

Yes — and it works alongside the factory Tremor transfer-case skid plate.

Does it upgrade the factory fuel tank skid?

Yes — our fuel tank skid replaces the factory fiberglass skid with aluminum, mounted to the frame instead of the tank.

Does it fit F450 and F550?

Yes — fits F250, F350, F450, and F550.

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.
