My major fear with even the stock setup is those cars with the low fronts like the older saturns. If one of those things hits a truck and gets underneath it, they are going right for your axle and suspension. Even if you get the damage repaired, theres still things bound to get damaged that will end up getting overlooked and just causing problems down the road.

 

ouch!!!

 

Bolt if you hadn't had those truck nuts on there that Ford driver wouldn't have been so fascinated with them and that whole accident could have been avoided.

More on topic Sir Michaels offers a roll pan for our trucks too: http://www.sirmichaels.com/display_part/266.php

 

I love the looks of a roll pan, but after getting rear-ended in a parking lot by some punk going maybe 10mph and having just over $2k in damage done to my old 98 Dakota, I think I'll keep the factory bumper.

 

I'd like to do a roll pan eventually but only if I can rig it up so I have reinforced hitch located behind the license plate, keep towing functionality and would help protect the truck in the case of getting rear-ended.

 

they sell hide away hitches with flip up license plates, as for pm i got on my roll pan, im pretty sure they stopped making it bc lund went out of business.. but other then that i would try FBI or sir Mikes, ill post a pic later on...

 

Ok thank you.
