Skid Plate.

[d.p]

Does anyone make a skid plate yet?

Since I destroyed the oil pan in my previous car I wanted to know if there is anyone that makes a strong skid plate.... Would be very interested for one on my Sedan.

take the dips a little slower or loose some weight. either way you won't bottom so bad.

Seriously tho, what material is the oil pan? If it's steel it should be able to take a few scrapes. If it's aluminum this may be a good idea

 

[d.p]

I have never. I'm far too shallow.

 

[ZachTullier]

I am thinking about making one out of some nice steal soon

 

[iraqivet]

Also, currently in contact with Dave from DDM about a metal skid plate. Will keep posted.

What material is the oil pan?

 

[Eric Smit]

Strong enough to hold the weight of the car.

 

[firstorbit84]

So Y use a skid plate?

 

[$ub$onic]

It's aluminum alloy if I had to guess

 

[theenico]

Oil pan is cast aluminum.

Translation: If smacked by a speed bump or some other undesirable contact with the road surface occurs, it will most likely crack if left unprotected.
