• Protects the rear differential cover seal — a common weak point on off-road trucks, and the reason this part exists
• Shields the lower back plate, so rocks cannot catch it and loosen the gasket seal
• Protects the rear axle from rock damage more generally

It is affordable insurance measured against a diff rebuild, and cheap next to a recovery.

This skid will not work with aftermarket diff covers unless specified.

Aftermarket covers change the shape and the bolt pattern the skid has to clear, so if you have already fitted one, contact us with what it is before ordering rather than assuming it will fit around it.

Compatible models:

• 2027 Ram TRX
• 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 Ram TRX

This is one of the parts that crosses the generation gap. Most TRX suspension parts do not, so check the years on each listing rather than assuming.

Recommended to be installed by a professional or certified mechanic.

What exactly does this protect?

The bottom of the rear differential cover and its seal, plus the lower back plate that a rock can catch and lever against.

Will it fit over my aftermarket diff cover?

Not unless we have specified it for that cover. Send us the cover you are running and we will tell you.

Does it fit a 2021-2024 TRX as well?

Yes. This part covers 2027 and 2021-2024 Ram TRX.

Can I install it myself?

We recommend a professional or certified mechanic do the install.

What else is worth protecting back there?

The rear shock skid and the rear shock guard mud flaps cover the other two things that get hit back there.
