The Colorado's transfer case sits low — protect it before the trail finds it.

The 2023+ Chevy Colorado is one of the most trail-capable midsize trucks made, and its transfer case is one of the most exposed parts under it. This 1/4" aluminum skid plate takes the rock strikes so your drivetrain doesn't.

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
  • Powder-coated black for abrasion resistance
  • Bolt-on installation using factory mounting points — no drilling, no modifications
  • All hardware included
  • Designed, cut, and finished in Colorado — 100% made in USA
  • Lifetime warranty

✅ Will this fit your truck?

Fits 2023–2026 Chevy Colorado, including ZR2 (same plate as our GMC Canyon listing).

⚠️ Will not fit vehicles with a 4"+ lift — aftermarket drop brackets and crossmembers interfere with factory mounting points.

Love this skid plate. Ripped off the OEM dirty diaper and had this thing install in little over a half an hour. Would highly recommend this product.

Easy install. I had access to a overhead lift so that helped a lot. The fit was perfect and the product is heavy duty. I would definitely recommend it.

I'm blown away by the quality of these skid plates. Thick aluminum, definitely overkill, but that's what I wanted. Very easy to install as well!

Customer review photo from Ron Moreau

on our 2024 Nova 30C the new L brackets worked great since our Generator does not have the lips. We had to play with it a bit since just mounting the plate to the brackets was against the screw heads on the generator but just barely . so we used one of the other brackets mounted underneath the l Bracker for clearance.. We then mounted it to the following order .bolt,,washer,b,racket,, L bracket, washer and locking nut. We had to also slightly rotate the generator muffler clamp to the pipe to get clearance to mount the skid plate. Your skid plate looks great but we did struggle getting to your recommended torque on tightening the bolts, but I just can't see it ever being a problem. Can't say enough how well your skid plate looks and appears to protect our generator. Let me know if you have any concerns with our installation process.

Great product, excellent protection giving me piece of mind every time I get behind the wheel. Also, Super easy to install and I usually default to handing that task off to someone else. The video tutorial on installation gave me all I needed to do the job myself. Thanks for a superior product!!!

The quality of the study plate far exceeded my expectations. The finish it has also was not what I expected & is far better a than normal powder coating finish. A well worth investment!!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common questions about our skid plates and armor

I have a GMC Canyon — will this fit?

The Colorado plates are Colorado-specific. See our Canyon plates here: GMC Canyon skid plates.

Does it fit the Colorado ZR2?

Yes. The ZR2 doesn't come with a front underbody camera, so our skid plate installs with no impact on any factory camera or sensor systems.

Does it work with the factory off-road package?

Yes — the transmission skid fits with the factory off-road engine skid plates.

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.
