The Seizmik SZM Skid Plate and Rock Slider Kit is constructed from 1/2" thick ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylene, a material specified as four times thicker and stronger than the stock plate with increased tensile strength. This configuration provides protection for vital undercarriage components, including the front and rear differentials, while the abrasion-resistant side panels function as rock sliders to shield the rocker panels. The UHMW composition is designed to resist denting, gouging, and rusting resulting from blunt edge impacts or sliding over obstacles.
Installation utilizes glass-filled nylon frame clamps with brass inserts that mount in the original equipment manufacturer (O.E.M.) location when possible, a design choice intended to eliminate excessive drilling during the install process. The kit combines the primary skid plate with these integrated rock slider panels to address both underbody impact protection and side abrasion resistance for the vehicle's lower structure.
