Ok, so I purchased the skid plate kit from Black Rhino and they arrived today. The front went on well no issues, but the rear plate lays flat against the frame so the washers won't seat causing them to stick up and the screw heads are exposed. Does anyone have any ideas? The only thing I can think of is to use fender washers and replace the bolts with a rounded head. Any ideas? I am tyring to get this fixed before the weekend.

Nope, when i mounted the plate they were not sitting flush because the plate was so close to the frame that the gromets were sticking up which could present a small problem. Any Ideas?

I went and bought some new washers to act as spacers and got a little heavier duty bolt and those seemed to work. we will see what happens.
