[QUOTE="SirDoopYJ, post: 433053, member: 19139"] I had no problem getting to my bolts with the skid plate on. My biggest issue was getting the oil pan back on with the skid plate there. To get the oil pan off you will see you have to move the oil pan forward and then wiggle it at an angle to get it between exhaust/muffler and drive shaft with the skid plate in the way. I struggled keeping the gasket in place on the pan when trying to get the pan back on the transmission. I don't believe it is difficult to remove the skid plate. There are alot of videos that show you how on youtube. You will have to put a jack stand to support the drive line though. The skid plate also serves as a transmission/Transfer case support mount [/QUOTE]
