Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in the kit?

Four manganese steel skid plates — engine, transfer case, gas tank, and rear differential — plus all mounting hardware and installation instructions.

Why choose manganese steel over aluminum?

Manganese steel work-hardens on impact — it gets harder the more it is struck. The highest level of protection for serious rock crawling and repeated heavy impacts. Heavier than aluminum but in a different class for technical terrain.

Will this kit fit my Cayenne 955 or 957?

Yes — fits Porsche Cayenne 955 (2002–2007), 957 (2008–2010), and VW Touareg Gen 1 (2002–2010).

Do I need to drill or modify the vehicle?

No — all plates are direct bolt-on using factory underbody mounting points. Instructions included for every plate.

How long does the full kit installation take?

Most owners complete the full kit in a single afternoon with the vehicle on a lift or ramps.
