DIFFERENTIAL SKID PLATE - SPRINTER (2015+ 3500 ONLY) by VAN COMPASS
SKU:3068
Add protection and peace of mind while exploring in the back country with the Van Compass rear differential skid plate. Loss of gear oil due to a cracked housing or leaking cover can be catastrophic to the rear differential. This skid plate protects the driveshaft u-joints, cast iron differential center section and lower portion of the thin sheet metal differential cover. Constructed from 1/4" thick steel and powder coated for corrosion resistance to provide a strong, smooth surface to slide over obstacles on the trail. The skid system bolts on in minutes with simple hand tools. Gear oil changes can still easily be performed without skid plate removal.

Much like other things that I purchased from Van compass, this one was no different. Straight bolt up - took about 15 minutes. Only recommendation I would make is to advise the customer to paint the differential plate with red and yellow stripes to prevent the tire shop from throwing a floor jack under it. Not designed to lift the vehicle, as the 3500 has lift points.
