    Cleaning before you mount the brackets isn't just about looking new, you don't want dirt scrunched in between the parts because that's a ticket to gnarly outcomes.

    ARB stuff is always beefy. I love those counter-sunk bolt holes too. So many manufacturers just have the bolt heads laying on top for rocks to chew on. Nice upgrade, for sure!

    Nope not overkill at all! I've smashed my front skid (stock) on a tree stump covered in snow in my 4runner and that saved my oil pan BIG TIME. The skid plate was totally deformed so I upgraded to an RCI front and mid skid. That one bad move is all I needed to know that skids are totally worth it.

    ARB products are the ultimate! I put on their bumper on my LC100. I thought it was overkill, then I hit someone hard (not my fault, they stopped on the middle of a right of way). Anyways, I thought my rig was totaled (the insurance company was going to do that because of its age), but the frame horns were not bent at all. The thick ARB bumper took all the impact. So I got the money, got another ARB and my rig lives again. Long live ARB!!

    I have ARB bumpers on my Jeep. ARB are one of the few off-road aftermarket companies who are engineering and testing their parts to meet OEM levels of safety. This stuff is important if you want your airbags or crumple zones to work properly in a crash. And this includes stuff like skid plates.

  • @eppyz
    @eppyz Год назад +1

    Its nice to see Aluminum control arms on the front of this Bronco, but for off roading wouldn't those also be a weak point? I would imagine if your going over rocks often, steel would be better than the Aluminum? I'm no off roader, but just logically thinking. I am assuming the Oil filter for this SUV is located in a place where those skid plates don't have to come off to change the oil? ARB does indeed make some cool stuff, keep rocking Girlie👍
