DRT Hitch Skid

If you’re like me and always pack two spare tires, here’s a simple way to mount that second one. The first image displays the parts I used: just an 8-inch 3/8 x 16 bolt, some washers, a lock washer, and a 3/8 threaded t-nut. Slide the t-nut into the bed rail track, rotate the tire to align two lug nut holes with the track, then slip the bolt through. It’s rock-solid and budget-friendly.

So I’ve put the DRT hitch skid on the back, to protect the stock bumper until we’ve got options. I know cbi makes an engine skid but with shipping and powdercoat it’s about $1130. Has anyone found a front engine skid for a reasonable price? What we got from factory doesn’t instill a whole lotta confidence tbh.
