2018 Raptor Skid Plate Question

[Tlh235]

Is it just one of them or all of them? I'll bet you could get a good angle from underneath or through the side of the bumper with the opening. Maybe vicegrips?

This link has some info that might help.

Just the one...i stopped after the first one broke. Didn't want to break the others. Gonna try and get a wrench in there from the side. Should work.

The cresent wrench up top and socket on the bottom did the trick. Use this method on all 4 that were up front since i didn't want to break any others. No cresent needed(or could be used from what i've seen) on two towards the back. Those came right out though.

I have done two oil changes and dropped the skid for both. So far I haven't had an issue with the captive nuts. I do use air tools so not sure if that makes a difference.
