Do these come stock on 4x4 rangers?

 

No. Not all rangers come with them

 

mine is the offroad model basically a older fx4 and it has a tcase skid and gas tank skid but no front skid plate

 

I have a XLT 4x4 and I have a gas tank skid and a t-case skid. No front one.

 

Do the gas tank skids fit 2wd? I'd assume regular cab and extended wouldn't interchange, right?

 

yea i got the same ones i guess only the off-road versions do

 

Stock Front, Transfer, and Gas Tank Skids on the Level 2 FX4, optional on the other 4x4 (at least 06+).

 

yea but i gotta 98 tho

 

I really think it is whatever they have laying around. There is no set skid plate setup. Except maybe fx4 lv2 might have all three

mine didn't come with any

 

mine came with all of them

 

Mine had the gas tank, and tcase skids, and it was an XL 4x4.

 

some come with a "skid plate" if you can call that worthless pile of sheet metal a skid plate.. the t-case and gas tank skid are half way decent, but the front ones are a false sense of security.

 

a snow pile tin canned mine lol i still need to take it off and beat it back

 

my point exactly haha

 

Ya my 02 FX4 has front t-case and fuel tank.

 

some rangers come with an "off road package" mine did. it sits higher than the typical 4wd models, and come with skid plates. i say they are better than nothing tho... i bought the front skid plate for my truck from super lift.... they make a really nice one, it looks cool, and is really strong!, i honestly jack my truck up with it... the downfall is price.

 

LOL just a tid bit of info for ya they havent done High rider package since Gen 3.. all 4x4 sit the same minus level II which only reason they sit higher is the class 1 bars and 31" tires..

excluding 08+ with there low ride 4x4 lol....

 

low ride 4x4 haha

 

I have had an 99XL and a 98XLT with the transfer case and gas tank skids and have had some with none...

 

my truck is the offroad package it has #1 tbars and k springs and they came with 255 tires i think
so they do sit a little taller but nothing like the
high rider package b4

 

well lol my ranger sits a good lil bit above my dads dakota but he put lil wimpy tires on his truck ehh to bad

 

Does anyone have part numbers for the different skid plates? I'm attempting to locate a front skid if at all possible.

 

I wouldn't waste your money. They are super thin. Spend $30 on some plate, and quickly bend one up. The stock one won't stop a pebble bouncing down the highway.

 

go to your local scrap yard..They sell metal for cheap

 

I would prefer the stock carbon steel. I don't need something crazy strong. Mainly something to keep the crap out.

I found the part number I was looking for anyways. 1L5Z-5B018-AA. Carbon steel front skid. $210 from 1stfordparts. I think not.
