Real Owner Feedback ★★★★★ "The fitment on my ZR2 was spot on. I was worried about the weight since I already have a rack and tent, but this aluminum plate is surprisingly light for how thick it is. Install took about 45 minutes with basic tools, and it has already saved my tank from several nasty stumps." - David R., Colorado ZR2 Owner Vehicle Fitment Guide Year Make Model Engine 2016 - 2022 Chevrolet Colorado Z71 / ZR2 2.8L Duramax Diesel 2023 - 2026 Chevrolet Colorado (All Trims) 2.7L Turbo Gas 2016 - 2022 GMC Canyon 4x4 2.8L Duramax Diesel 2023 - 2025 GMC Canyon (All Trims) 2.7L Turbo Gas Frequently Asked Questions + Will this fit my Extended Cab or Long Bed truck? No. This fuel tank skid plate is designed and confirmed to fit Crew Cab Short Bed models only. Differences in the frame and tank location on other configurations prevent a secure fit. + Does this fit both Diesel and Gas engines? Yes. It has been tested and confirmed for the 2.8L Duramax Turbo Diesel (2016-2022) and the newer 2.7L Turbo Gas engines found in the 2023+ models. + Is any drilling or cutting required for installation? No. The Asfir 4x4 skid plate is a 100% bolt-on solution. It uses your vehicle's existing factory mounting points, ensuring you can return to stock at any time without permanent modifications. + Why choose aluminum instead of steel for a fuel tank skid? Aluminum is naturally corrosion-resistant, meaning it will never rust even if scratched by rocks. Additionally, it is much lighter than steel, which helps maintain your truck's payload capacity and fuel efficiency while still providing excellent impact protection. + How do the ventilation and drainage slots work? The laser-cut slots allow airflow to help regulate fuel temperature and enable mud, water, and trail debris to escape the plate, preventing trapped moisture and excess weight buildup after off-roading.
