Hey all, new to the forum and new to owning my own truck. I bought a used '20 4x4 bighorn and it didn't come with the off road package/skid plates. I've been looking at other forums for DIY installation and purchasing of parts and from what I can find, even though 4 are listed on the parts list, people have only been able to find 3 on their trucks (that come from the factory with them) and only 1 kit online comes with all the mounting brackets and bolts. I was wondering if anyone has purchased and installed the skid plates on their truck.

There are only 3 plates.

The ORG lists four (fuel tank, transfer case, front suspension, and steering gear) but there are really only 3. The front suspension and steering gear are the same plate.

I went round and round with the dealership when I bought my truck because I had 3 plates and 4 were listed. After numerous phone calls I learned "the truth" that my truck was not missing any skid plates...
