Red46 Sump Armor Skid Plates

[Red46]

Btw these plates are also good to look from above the motor and see if you got leaks. I found out a couple of hoses leaking.

Ya I've found a couple leaks....haven't fixed them though :/

I need to get on this, air kit shows up next week.

I'll be on vacation March 21-April 1. So I won't be able to ship during that time.

Just ordered mine

Shipping out tomorrow, thanks!

Just wrapped up my swap and already dinged the pan. I get paid friday and will be grabbing one of these I think.

Ya, you don't want your fresh swap to bleed out in the middle of the street.
Ready to ship.

So, props to Red46. He's a great guy. If anyone's wondering about fitting one of his plates with an EJnight cross brace, it fits.

On the cross brace bolts, there are spacers that mount between the brace and subframe that are nearly exactly the same thickness as the plate. I mounted the plate in place of those and used the same bolts that came with the cross brace. The big nuts are just the spacers I used for my e36 rack. You can probably mount the spacers above the rack and still clear the skid plate, which will decrease bump steer. It doesn't look like the plate sits any lower than the brace, but it's in front of the wheels so it will definitely scrape more. Oh well, that's the point of a plate.
