This protection acts as a shield for your engine and oil pan, ensuring that critical components are safeguarded against mechanical damage.

This skid plate covers the engine and gearbox, providing extensive protection from below. Its construction features reinforcing ribs that enhance rigidity and shock absorption, along with strategically placed ventilation openings that maintain optimal cooling. Service access openings are included, allowing for easy oil and filter changes without removing the protection.
This skid plate effectively shields against impacts from rocks, ice, dirt, curbs, and speed bumps. By preventing damage to vital components, it reduces maintenance costs and enhances the vehicle's longevity. Installation is straightforward, as it mounts directly to factory points without the need for drilling or modifications.
How does Kolchuga® protection differ from the factory one? The factory (stock) protection is typically a plastic dust cover (splash guard) or thin composite material. Its main function is protection from dirt and dust. In contrast, Kolchuga® protection is a durable metal plate (steel or aluminum) that serves as a mechanical shield. It provides reliable protection from impacts against rocks, branches, or open manholes. The key difference: Factory protection guards against dirt, while Kolchuga® guards against impact.
