Default Skid Plate Options

Does anyone have any recommendations for skid plates for a 2011 XLT 4x4? I will probably end up getting a leveling kit, not sure which though.

I would love to cover as much of the drivetrain as possible. The mountains out here are great for shredding tires and breaking trucks.

There are two good options other than OEM FX4 plates. Procomp makes a cheaper decent set and Asfir 4x4 makes top of the line plates for every part of the truck, but you pay a premium.

Here is the link:

Stay away from oem. I wouldn't call them skid plates. More like peices of tin.

Thanks for the help everyone. The Pro Comps look like the winners to me.

I will have a custom heavy duty F-150 skid plate for 09+ trucks available here within the next few weeks so keep me in mind. They will be CNC plasma cut, brake bent, and 3/16" steel / 1/4" aluminum and priced approx $200 for steel and $250 for AL. Powdercoating will be available for around $30 extra.
