Hi Guys and Girls,

This past weekend we went wheelin and i found out that the plastic air dam thingie does more than channel air. It also protects the swaybar disconnect electrical connections from getting smashed and drowned in water.

We were going down the Wall trail up here @ Reiter trails in Goldbar, WA. and part of the trail is water fording up to the bottom of the door. Being its winter here and that water freezes the 1.5 - 2" ice broke up under the weight of RubyDoo and while getting through it, it must have smashed the swaybar disconnect connection and got water into the sway bar mechanical parts them selves because my sway bar has yet to reconnect at all sence saturday afternoon.

Guess i am going to have to order the Guard for the Warn front bumper i have to protect it after its fixed.

damn that sucks about the swaybar, hope its warrenty. yeah, that plastic thingy does act as a skid, mind you not a very good one, but you never know when that little bit of protection is going to count. i'm hopping to get a metal one soon to replace mine that got dramaticly ripped off while fighting my way out of a mud pit and 3"s of ice chuncks.

 

If you're talking about the "skid plate" for underneath the Warn bumper, it doesn't protect the belly of the disco. Good for a front hit, but that's about it.

 

Thats what i need, i believe a front hit or several tagged it.

 

There is a simple mod using a new bolt to flip that hardware up and out of the way. My fat foot could damage something through that cheap plastic air dam, it does not protect anything when off road in my eyes.

I can't find it using the search. Can someone provide a link?

WOW thanks guys. Going to have to try it after it gets fixed next week.
