I am assuming it never made it to any of the production models, but a good lot of the US PTO2 vehicles that had little diff locks also had bash guards/skid plates under each diff housing... They were quite small but did the job and would be easy to reproduce

After many early promises for underbody protection I was disappointed when none materialized on any pre-production vehicles I saw.

Funny that the 1:18 scale models show skid plates and they are listed as being included in the Ineos advert.

It seems that it was there already. Wonder why it was left away in the end. Weight or money saving? They could sell it as an accessory at least....

Most likely a weight issue. Not offering it as an accessory does seem odd when heavy roof racks and steps/sliders are available at purchase.

They mostly likely left it to third party to do, in Europe they have SPP for this. Here in the US and separately in Australia/New Zealand we need to work together to get one hundred vendors who build this protection to get on Ineos Grenadier band wagon. I partial to Next Venture Motor Sports Skids, I plan on going up to see them when I get back to up Durango.

SPP who had Ineos skid plates https://spp-industries.com/en/produ...Ni7yjTQwS-a1MlPXBcMLVRhyZk776aqo-u6rz7IfG8r8o.

Does SSP not ship to the US? I was hoping to buy from them if they would remove the VAT.

They probally do. remember there maximum dollar amount before you pay a US Customs Tariff, and need check shipping costs to the states.

Where is the oil filter?

Protected under the plate, you see it next to the forward drive shaft in the above photo. You can see that part of the skip plate comes off first and on last. Attached to Blue mount up fronts and bolts in the back to bracket.

Remember on Grenadier, we do no have this issue. you just need oil pan drain access. Oil filter come out from the top.

Here example another Vehicle the Bronco
  • Net Weight Gain: 45 lbs Aluminum only
  • Net Weight Gain Aluminum with UHMW: 80 lbs

They do need a few strategically placed holes to allow the air to flow a bit to reduce heat and to allow debris to fall out and for quick cleaning in the field (spinifex and long grass). Need to be easy to remove for repairs with decent sized hex bolts 10mm no torx no Allen key heads.

What if gravel sand, dirt, mud and debris finds it's way and ends up on top of these armor plates? How do you get rid of it? I can see a heavy mud sandwich building up underneath of your car. Or gravel transforming your car into a giant Maraca. On slick rock on the other hand these plates would widen your degree of freedom when it comes to choosing your line. Wonderful there for sure.

IMO underbody armour like that is for rock crawlers.
I have all terrain types here, and know that the one thing that will cause expensive (very expensive) damage is rocky terrain.
Many countries don't even see rain...let alone mud , spinifex, roadkill etc

East Coast USA we have it all - lots of mud, lots of trees (and resulting logs), lots of water, and while no slickrock we do have lots of rocks (mostly hidden from view). Sliders and diff covers are a great idea, as is a plate for that plastic ZF sump.

I attached steel diff covers to my Disco. $100 the pair , used but undamaged!
I'd like a well priced steel sump cover and maybe an uprated front belly pan.
I'll wait and see what the aftermarket comes up with.
I really don't want to wave my tail too hard in the mouth of the damage fox , so I'll leave the heroics to affluencers and influencers.
