2021-2026 Gen 3 Raptor Rear Frame Lower Link Skid Kit
Description
Description
Bolt-on rear frame skids that protect the rear lower arm link mounts on the 2021–2026 Gen 3 Ford F-150 Raptor. Built from 3/16" mild steel and MIG welded, they bolt directly to the stock frame with no welding.
The rear lower link mounts hang below the frame where rocks, ledges and debris hit them first. These skids take that contact so the mounts and the arms bolted to them do not.
What Is In The Kit
- (2) protection skids
- (2) 5½" bolts
- (2) 7" bolts
- (8) washers
- (4) 3/8" Nyloc nuts
- (2) locking plates
Why Protect The Rear Link Mounts
On the Gen 3 Raptor, the rear lower trailing arms attach to brackets on the underside of the frame. Those brackets are among the lowest points at the back of the truck. Drag them across a rock or drop onto a ledge and the impact goes straight into the mount that locates the axle.
A bent or damaged link mount is a frame repair, not a bolt-on part swap. A skid in front of the mount gives the truck a surface to slide on instead, which keeps the mounts intact and extends the life of the rear suspension.

How It Is Built
- 3/16" thick mild steel
- MIG welded
- Designed around the stock Gen 3 F-150 Raptor frame, bolting to it directly
Fitment
Fits all Gen 3 Ford F-150 Raptors, model years 2021–2026, on the stock frame.
