I think the inlets on the after market front skid plates are meant to let air flow over the inner cooler for the Cummins diesel turbo.

Just a observation on air flow for helping to cool the engine. I recently took the front air dam off the PW and installed a SDHQ front skid plate in its place. I noticed that the hood has more flutter to it now when driving on the freeway at 80 mph. It seems the skid plate with its open plate...

I have the 8 position Vostich on my Jeep and like it. Very clean setup. Early March I am told for the Power Wagon available one. I am getting mine through Rebel Off Road.

You actually have a Rebel and not a power wagon os the part should be fine.

I have a 8 position handle switch in the Jeep. If they have a 8 position I will get it otherwise I will get the 4 position. Thanks for the find, not trying to hijack your thread. Voswitch was sold out but I guess Rebel off road had some.

Installed SDHQ front skid plate. A subframe that gets bolted to the spot where the snow plow brackets were. Removal of the front plastic valance and the skid plate bolts to the bottom of front bumper and the provided skid sub frame. The skid plate is aluminum 3/16th that I had powder coated...

I wish Voswitch made a switch panel for the grab handle like they do for my Jeep. Very clean integration by replacing the drivers door grab handle.

I hope you made it up to Burnt Knob when you were in Magruders.

I took a trip in Southern Nevada yesterday along the Carp/Elgin road off I15 (54 miles dirt) then highway 12 to Caliente. Easy trip and great scenery from wide open spaces to narrow canyon with train tunnels.

I try to drive mine fast enough that it can never kick on.

i would consider one if I were going to do a overland build with light weight camper like a dirt box or alucab. I would have to add a front winch bumper and upgrade the suspension and add all the Dethloff skid plates so that could be an easy 15K without the camper.

Pictures of Installed Dethloff sliders that someone requested a while ago.
