AEV Rear Differential Skid Plate

AEV’s rear differential skid plate (aka differential slider) is standard equipment for the 2019-22 Colorado ZR2 Bison

bison co skid plate diff

The AEV Rear Diff. Skid Plate is standard on the 2019-22 Colorado ZR2 Bison, it was designed for the Dana M220 rear axle found in most 2015-22 Colorado trucks. The Hot Stamped Boron Steel construction means that this skid plate is not only super lightweight but also incredibly strong.

Complete with hardware, the AEV rear diff skid plate only weighs 9 lbs versus 20 lbs, like our traditionally manufactured JK diff slider.

This Hot Stamped Boron Steel skid plate is designed to help you slide over obstacles, instead of having them stop you dead in your tracks.

  • It was actually a great learning experience for us, especially since skid plates are not something that we have really explored in much depth prior to the ZR2 Bison.

  • Hot Stamped Boron Steel is an ultra-high strength, press hardened steel. Hot Stamped Boron Steel has a high yield strength (approximately 200,000 ksi vs. mild steel at 25,000 ksi).

  • Absolutely! While this Differential Skid Plate was standard equipment on the 2019-22 Colorado ZR2 Bison, we designed it for all Colorado Z71/ZR2 models with the Dana M220 rear axle.

  • All of the ZR2 Bison's skid plates are proudly manufactured in the USA.

First one came in with a lot of paint missing on the front side and in questionable packaging. Second one came in better but still with a nick in the paint. Company is sending touch up paint but for the price I’d expect much better.

Great product, larger than I expected 17 inch by 17 inch. Will protect a differential and drive shaft end.

Good product. Didnt seem fit perfectly snug as i was expecting, but instead kinda bolts in at an angle on the top of the diff.

Went on w/o issue, except I had to find nuts for the U bolts, just make sure you have all your hardware before installing.

cost is a little high, but it's cheaper than a breakdown rescue 50 miles off the nearest pavement.

This thing is great! Super thick steel and built way tougher than I will ever need. This also could not be easier to install. I can barely screw in a light bulb and I had this on in 15 minutes. It only needs one size of socket and fit perfect on my ‘21 Colorado ZR2. I will surely be purchasing more AEV products in the future.
