Now compatible with S&B 45- and 47-gallon fuel tanks, the Van Compass Differential Skid Plate provides serious protection for your Mercedes Sprinter’s drivetrain when exploring off-road. A cracked housing or leaking cover can lead to catastrophic gear oil loss, leaving you stranded. This skid plate is designed to shield the driveshaft U-joints, cast-iron differential center section, and the lower sheet metal cover from damage caused by rocks, ruts, and debris.
Constructed from ¼” thick steel, this skid plate offers unmatched strength and durability while the black powder-coated finish prevents corrosion and delivers a clean, professional look. The smooth underside design allows your van to slide easily over obstacles without catching or dragging.
The bolt-on system installs in minutes with simple hand tools and is compatible with both 2WD and 4WD Sprinter 2500 models. Maintenance is simple—gear oil changes can be completed without removing the skid plate, keeping your van adventure-ready at all times.
