ARB  5480100 Under  Vehicle  Protection  panels  are  designed  to  give  protection  to  vital  underbody components  including  steering,  engine  sump,  transmission and press  formed  and  folded  3mm  sheet  steel  is  used  in  ARB  UVP transfer  case.  Laser  cut, to  provide  superior strength. The ARB  UVP  to  suit  the Ford  Bronco  (Ford Bronco Skid Plates) consist  of  four  carefully  designed  panels.  The front, sump  and  transmission  and  transfer  case  panels  bolt  directly  to  the chassis  to  provide continuous  under  vehicle protection from  the  front  bumper  to  the  rear  of  the transfer  case. Each UVP  panel  includes  a  return edge to  add  strength to  the 3mm  panel.   To  retain the strength and  protection required of  an  ARB  UVP,  full  vehicle  servicing  will require the removal  and  refit of  panels  to  obtain access  to  drain  plugs  and  other  service points.  This  provides  an  opportunity  to  check  for  damage and  buildup  of dirt  and  foreign matter.  Provision  is  provided  to  drain engine  oil  only  with  removable insert  in the second panel.

ARB’s  Ford Bronco Skid Plate Set, UVP,  will  fit with or  without  an ARB  front  bumper.  Fitment has  not been confirmed  with other  bumper  designs.
