Rugged Ridge 07-23 Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU/JL/JLU & 20-23 Gladiator Hitch Skid Plate 2in. Rec - Tex Blk

Over our years of off-roading, we've learned the hard way that hard rocks and trailer hitches don't play well together. One afternoon of impacts can grate your nerves and turn your 2 in. square receiver into scrap metal. That's why we engineered the Rugged Ridge Hitch Skid Plate from an incredibly strong ¼-inch steel plate so it brushes off severe impacts without skipping a beat. The skid plate assembly fits any standard 2 in. receiver and features a built-in step granting convenient access to truck beds, cargo areas, or roof-mounted racks. Finished with a lightly textured black powder coat, the Hitch Skid Plate looks at home on the pavement and in the backwoods, with a design that functions flawlessly in any terrain.
