OK, my plan of attack for the rear skid is to measure the distance between the skid hole and the cladding screw hole.

~If it's a relatively small distance, drill the hole a little larger in the skid to try to match it up, but not so large that the washer fits through. I found some really large flat rubber washers 2.5" across that might help in that scenario.

~If distance is pretty big, need to make a metal "bridge". A skinny flat piece of metal with a hole in each end. Connect cladding to hole closest to truck, connect skid to the other hole.

~All using grade 8 hardware, and aluminum or something stainless steel for the bridge.

~Dub and Ron did I get that basically correct as you told me?

~Any precautions if I do have to drill the skid plate hole larger? It's ABS....will it shatter or crack etc??

~Also realize there's no way in he!! I can get a locking pin on the hitch w/o some major surgery on the skid. So think I've seen some regular pins that will fit if I want to run with my superbumper on. Any other ideas?

~Would it be OK to just put a wire nut on each loose end of wires for the fogs I cut off, and tuck them up behind the cladding?
