6mm Laser-Cut Aluminum. Direct Bolt-On. ISO 9001 Certified Protection.
Maximum Defense for the Plastic Bumper BroncoThe Asfir 4x4 Ford Bronco Front Skid Plate is precision-engineered to solve the biggest vulnerability of the factory setup: the lack of structural underbody protection on models equipped with the OE plastic bumper. Manufactured from 1/4" (6 mm) high-grade aluminum, this armor provides a lightweight yet impenetrable shield for your steering rack and front cooling components.
Proudly made to ISO 9001 standards, this skid plate ensures that a hidden rock or a deep rut doesn't end your trip. It integrates seamlessly with the Bronco chassis, offering extensive coverage while maintaining the maximum ground clearance required for technical trails.
The Problem & The Solution:The Pain: The factory plastic bumper offers zero structural protection, leaving vital steering and radiator components exposed to debris and impact.
The Asfir Solution: We provide a 33 lb heavy-duty aluminum shield that mounts directly to the chassis using zinc-coated steel brackets. It offers "Real Off-Road Protection" without the weight penalty of heavy steel plates.
Key Features: Front-End Underbody Armor
6mm thick laser-cut aluminum provides superior impact resistance while remaining 40% lighter than traditional steel plates.
Specifically engineered to fill the protection gap on Ford Bronco models equipped with the factory original plastic front bumper.
100% bolt-on design. Mounts directly to existing chassis points. No drilling, cutting, or welding required to secure your front end.
Laser-cut apertures allow for proper airflow to cooling components, ensuring your engine doesn't overheat during high-load climbs.
Heavy-duty steel support brackets are zinc-coated to prevent rust and corrosion, even in salty or wet off-road environments.
Manufactured under strict quality control protocols, guaranteeing a precise fit and reliable performance on every unit.
Integrated drain holes allow mud, water, and sand to escape, making post-trail cleanup faster and preventing underbody weight buildup.
At just 33 lbs, this skid plate provides maximum front-end defense without overloading your front suspension or affecting MPG.
Engineered for Harsh EnvironmentsWe don't cut corners. The Asfir Front Skid Plate is built to handle the vertical impacts and sliding forces of serious rock crawling. By using 6mm aluminum reinforced by steel brackets, we deliver a system that is "trail reliable"—no matter where the journey takes you.
33 lbs Total Weight 6 mm Aluminum Thickness ISO 9001 Quality Certified Bolt-On Installation
"I have a Big Bend with the plastic bumper and felt like the undercarriage was way too exposed. The Asfir skid plate fit perfectly and feels significantly more substantial than the factory 'splash guard' I removed. It gave me a lot more confidence through some deep ruts this weekend. Installation was as simple as the instructions said—no drilling at all."

This specific model is designed to interface correctly with the OE factory plastic bumper. If you have an aftermarket steel bumper, check our other listings for the "Modular Bumper" or "Aftermarket Bumper" specific front skid plate models to ensure correct gap coverage.
This front skid plate covers the steering and front area. For oil filter and pan access, please refer to the Asfir Engine Skid Plate (sold separately). The front skid plate generally does not need to be removed for standard oil service on the 2.3L/2.7L engines.
Yes. All necessary bolts and brackets are included. The support brackets are zinc-coated steel to ensure maximum durability and resistance against road salt and moisture.
No. Asfir skid plates are designed with integrated air vents. These are scientifically placed to ensure that airflow to the radiator and intercooler is maintained according to factory specifications.
The total assembly weight is approximately 33 lbs (15 kg). This is far lighter than steel equivalents, ensuring your front-end suspension doesn't sag and your braking distance remains unaffected.

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.
The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov

The wait time was more than I anticipated even after seeing the notification of long lead times. I have to give them props for giving some compensation for the excessive wait time. Having slightly larger holes would help with fitment. Had a hard time getting the front drivers side away from the pinch weld. Eventually had to use washers to add space away from the truck. Need to update pictures and instalation video for the new sliders they are now making
All packing and shipment were great, everything was there. I had to contract out the install because of arthritis, it took them two hours and looks perfect. Zero wind noise at any speed 0 to 100.
Absolutely love my new rack and roam cases. Appreciate the Sherpa crew as well for their hospitality while the installation was taking place.
Fit and finish is excellent. Looks great on the Bronco. No whistling noise at all, some additional wind noise over 60mph but not much different than it was without the rack. Assembly was not too difficult. Instructions and videos could be a little better.
The quality and dedication of the team at Sherpa is evident from the very first interaction with them, and is further proven in the product itself. This rack is well engineered, easy to assemble, easy to adjust, and holds up incredibly well with no loosening or rattling or shifting (even after over 200 miles of driving on poorly maintained roads). Currently operating with approximately 180 pounds of gear mounted on the bed rack and no issues at all so far. I expected the vibration to work the bolts loose over time, but every time I check they're all still snug. My only regret is that I didn't pull the trigger and get this rack sooner.
First of all, the team at Sherpa is full of passion for adventure and that passion shows in the quality of their products. This roof rack looks incredible and surprised me with it's sturdiness. No loosening of hardware, even after weeks of driving. Currently holding approximately 80 pounds of gear for everyday driving, plus an additional 110 strapped on top during a camping trip (and I even stood on top of the entire loadout). No warping, bending, twisting, or slipping. The fact that this matches the bed rack perfectly in height is the icing on the cake. Easily serves as a tie off for a tarp, rain fly, hammock, or whatever you need. Perfect for modular campsite setup and quick teardown.
I bought the Sherpa Crestone rack for my 2024 4Runner TRD Pro. Incredibly well-made and excellent design. Spend the extra , to get best roof rack in the market. You won’t regret it.
This is our first roof rack that we are going to use to put a RRT (roof top tent) on for back country trips. Well-built product that came with all the nuts, bolts and washers to complete the installation. Took about 1-1/2 to 2 hours install the rack. You will another person to help place the racks on top of the Jeep for final install. Overall, a great, well-built American product
Install was super easy. The quality was great. Customer service was quick to respond to any issues! I’ve already been getting compliments on it and what brand it is. This will be great for camping this year!
This is on my tundra absolutely solid rack looks fantastic extremely modular, which is why I went this route. I can use the whole rack when traveling and over landing then rock the chase rack only when the rest is not in use, I actually use the recovery traction board mounts for my shower room set up, which works amazingly just relocated the board somewhere shown in picture keep innovating TUWAand I’ll keep purchasing.
Good looking cat shields made of stainless steel with cooling holes. Priced well, easy install, no issues. Would buy again.
Great service from their staff. Robert help me through all the process with a request I had, he responded all emails in a timely manner and provided great help.
We received it within 3 days and installed the same day. Great awning and very well made.
the tent is very nice, comfortable and roomy.
Following the instructions was fairly easy. Its better to have second person to set it up. I really like the tent and the support that from ExtrailAuto. Really recommeded! Thanks
