They are designed to be used together.
Our alternator cover guard protects the thin stock cover from becoming perforated by your shifter or rocks. Easy to install using the stock bolt locations (we supply new bolts).
Our Rock Slider skid plate allows you to glide over rocks instead of grinding up your bare aluminum skid plate.
