DIY Rally Skid Plate - Is it Worth It?

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Thanks to Ebay Motors for sponsoring this video. Go over to bit.ly/EbayMotorsDonut to start guessing what your pick for the next MoneyPit is.
The coolest thing about rally cars is that they can drive both on and off road, and off road is where the fun really lives. Sliding and jumping things is probably 99% the reason we decided to build our own BMW. However, the dark side of driving in the dirt is that there are bound to be some rocks looking to yeet the underside of your car … mainly the oil pan or your gas tank. Nothing would suck more than being stranded in the desert because Mr. Dwayne the Rock smashed into your car, SO we decided to make our own skid plates. Let’s hope they work. Stop reading this, go watch the vid!

    He would just need the one for the drain, since the oil filter is on top. I think that is how it is for this generation BMW. What I would do is put to threaded inserts and make a slightly larger access hole so when you do drain the oil it doesn’t splash onto your skid plate

    The plates turned out nice! I think you forgot major things though when it comes to protection from rocks. One are wheel scrapers to kick out any rocks from the inside of the wheels. Without them, over long distances, the rocks can turn your 1 piece rims into 2 piece. The other is foam underneath the oil pan. While the skid plates do protect it well, if a rock manages to get nudged between the skid plate and oil pan, it'll become a focus point for any forces that hit the skid plate in that area. In that case, it'd actually be better to not have the skid plate. Much like how sand on a beach can make its way into a house, pebbles and small rocks can weasel their way above the skid plate.

    As a tip, when working with CAD (Cardboard Aided Design), when you want to mark out attachment locations. Tape a thumb tack where you want to put your bolt holes. Then when you push the cardboard up it will leave a hole in it. Then you can remove the tack, and use your punch through the hole in the cardboard. This can save you a little time, and/or swiss cheesed cardboard.

    You dont want a skidplate flush with the oil pan, there is no room for flex from an impact. Stand it off a bit but also dont forget to add foam between the skid plate and the oil pan. If a rock gets between and you bump something its and instant hole the same as if you flush mounted it.

    What type of foam could withstand the heat of the oil pan while actually being dense enough to absorb impact? Not sure that is needed. The important part of the skid plate is to prevent an upcoming rock from going above the level of the oil pan and crashing into the front of the oil pan. Instead, the plate makes the dangers pass below the oil pan and glance off.

    You should recess your bolts! in order for something to shear the plate through the bolt, the shear area is the circumference of the bolt head times the thickness of the plate. When you recess your bolt, you are usually using wider heads so it makes the whole thing stronger too. Something like a flat head bolt with a shallow chamfer angle (standard is 82 deg) will really help.

    Thumbs up for the Final Fantasy reference with a car video! Edit: I should more importantly say, since I didn't see anyone else say it, save the cardboard outlines! The whole point of skid plates is they're cheaper to replace than the component parts you would be damaging. Having to go through the trouble of cutting new cardboard and then aligning the already existing bolt placement would detract from the full use. Great video, love the direction the Beemer is going!

    Agreed! I built the skidplate for my M3 similar and it is reinforced by the X-brace. My skidplate has 2 hooks on the back of it that hook onto the rear tube of the X-brace, then it gets attached to a brace I welded up in the front. The front brace is triangulated, mounts to the frame at the bumper mounting points, then back to the anti-sway bar mounts. Also, the front of the skid plate should extend beyond the leading edge of the lower edge of the bumper and get bent up about 30 degrees. Mine is also mounted with some 1/4” pins with the spring-loops around them, very secure but the plate can be removed in seconds.

    4:50 Drilling holes in the cardboard and transferring them to the frame was a pointless exercise. Fab the aluminum, clamp it to the car, and then drill all your holes in one shot. Also, you should have used flat head cap screws and drilled tapered holes in the skid plate so that the heads of the bolts don't get knocked off. Otherwise, a pretty solid project overall.

    Easier to line up the holes with the foldy-bendy cardboard rather than having to guess or actually measure where the holes would have to go with the aluminum plate in your way. Good point regarding the screws tho. Fact is, it ain't too late to fix that.

    @@JunKus3R You don't have to guess or measure anything. The frame members around the perimeter are easy to see and you can draw lines with a straight edge across the skid plate from the ends to determine where in the middle you want to drill. The issue with using the cardboard is that your holes will not line up because a sloppy hole in the cardboard will not transfer nicely to the frame and to the skid plate. They likely had to enlarge the size of the holes in the skid plate off camera in order to get the bolts to line up with the riv-nuts.
